Replacing a NON-boot disk WITHOUT LVM mirroring

Example configuration:

Volume group /dev/vg00 contains the three disks, with the logical volume configuration as shown:


                  |---------|     |---------|     |---------|
                  | lvol 1  |     | lvol 3  |     | lvol 5  |
                  |---------|     |---------|     |---------|
                  | lvol 2  |     | lvol 4  |     | lvol 6  |
                  |---------|     |---------|     |         |
                  | lvol 3  |     | lvol 5  |     |         |
                  |---------|     |---------|     |---------|

hardware address   52.6.0          52.5.0          52.4.0
device file        c0t0d0          c0t1d0          c0t2d0
 (/dev/dsk/)

The scenario for this chapter is that the disk at hardware address 52.4.0 has a head crash, and as a result it is unusable. The steps outline a method that can be used to recover from this state.
