> Solaris 8 bootdrives mirrored with VxVM 3.2 and VxFS 3.4....

"drives" aren't really mirrored, filesystems are, and I doubt your boot
filesystem has VxFS.

"expand a plex".  Do you need to do that rather than expand a volume
(possibly creating a new plex)?

That should be the information you need.  Are you looking for something
else?

If it's not a boot filesystem, probably.

You have to boot from root before VxVM is running, so it is subject to
many restrictions that are not present for other filesystems.
