My requirement is server should not reboot if I reduce the lvols and reduce the primary root pv from root VG.

Re: Replace Primary root disk in HPUX 11i
After failed disk has been replaced by HP (assuming the disk is c1t5d0):
vgcfgrestore -n /dev/vg00 /dev/rdsk/c1t5d0
mkboot /dev/rdsk/c1t5d0
mkboot -a "hpux -lq (;0) /stand/vmunix" /dev/rdsk/c1t5d0
vgchange -a y /dev/vg00
lvlnboot -Rv /dev/vg00
vgsync /dev/vg00
But, seeing how it hasn't completely failed, you may want to reduce it from lvm, then from the vg....then pull it, then recreate your mirror.
