Wants to remove medianame rootdisk01 from rootdg disk group

Hi All,
 

Some days back I tried to break the mirror & establish it again , in that activity a new media name got created as rootdisk03 ( Originaly It were rootdisk01 & rootdisk02 associated with subdisk c13t8dos1 and c13t9d0s1 resply)

 

after that my rootdisk was mirrored as rootdisk01 & rootdisk03 ( the rootdisk02 was in removed state)

 

Today when I tried to take the ignite backup I got some errors related to disk as follows

*******************

ERROR:   Failed to find "/dev/disk/-" in IOTree
diskinfo: can't open /dev/rdisk/-: No such file or directory
save_config: warning -  The public size string is NULL.
save_config: Error - Ignite-UX does not support the dissociated volume "homevol" without an associated subdisk. Fix this probl
em, then try again.
ERROR:   /opt/ignite/bin/save_config failed
************************************

So I again i broke the mirror & established again in between rootdisk01 & rootdisk02 by using the vxdiskadm-->3 & 4 number option. So now wants to know how to remove that rootdisk03, which i could see in output of "vxprint -htg rootdg"

e.g.

pl varvol-03    varvol       DISABLED REMOVED  25165824 CONCAT    -        RW
sd rootdisk03-08 varvol-03   rootdisk03 87031808 25165824 0       -        RMOV

Thanks in advance

Nitin
