1.use vxdisadm
2.vxencap (encpsulation the disk)
mostly we are using the vxencap because vxdiskadm is the
lenthy process

===================
1.take the onther disk egual size of root disk
2.for example the 2 disks c1t0d0(root disk) and c1t2d0
3.encaplating the root disk
vxencap -c -f -g <diskgroupname> sliced d0=c1t0d0
4.reboot the server
reboot the server only modify the disk in vfstab and in
etcsysem
5.take the second disk under control of veritas
vxdisksetup -i c1t2do
vxdg -g <diskgroupname> adddisk c1t2d0
