IIRC, that's a part of the history of disksuite / SVM. Moreover, it was that you cannot mirror a slice that has a VTOC label on it to one that does not... (hence the understanding of it being a cylinder 0 issue). http://src.opensolaris.org/source/xref/onnv/onnv-gate/usr/src/uts/common/io/lvm/mirror/mirror_ioctl.c#887 Or, perhaps I need more coffee...
