Resolution

First make new subdisk:

# vxmake -g sd disk= offset= len=

Next move the data from the old subdisk to the new subdisk:

# vxsd -g mv

After checking vxprint -ht output, remove old_sd:

# vxedit -g -rf rm

Now mirror the volume:

# vxassist -g mirror **

** mirror needs equal space or more than the volume.
