Re: [foxboro] Adding a hard drive

What you are asking for is called Disk Concatenation.  The only
nastiness,I think, is that the existing mirror must be stopped;
the primary disk extended; then the whole set needs to be re-mirrored


I don't know about any online stuff but this is all explained in the
hard copy documentation shipped with mirrored drives or in B0192ND - Solaris 
Administration Guide.
