which LV ??

If it's one of yours and not a system LV, then you can back the LV up, remove it, then perfrom the vgreduce safely.

Hi radi

You have to reduce the mirror first:
#lvreduce -m 0 /dev/vg00/lv# /dev/dsk/c#c#d#

Then remove the broken disk from vg00, then remove that disk,
Insert the new disk again, format and mirror it again.

I attached the document file, it will help you.

Goodluck
