If you are lazy like me. Then blindly follow this to create your lv.

assuimg your new disk is /dev/dsk/c1t2d0

1) pvdisplay /dev/dsk/c1t2d0 ( make sure it doesn't belong to any exiting volume group)
or strings /etc/lvmtab | grep c1t2d0

2) pvcreate /dev/rdsk/c1t2d0
3) mkdir /dev/newvg
4) ll /dev/*/group ( look for 0x##0000)
5) mknod /dev/newvg/group -c 64 0x##0000
## should be the next mumber from 4)
6) vgcreate -s 16 /dev/newvg /dev/dsk/c1t2d0
7) lvcreate -L 2048 /dev/newvg
create a 2GB lv
