We were using Veritas VxVM to break and create mirrors online as well
as resilver them. This was online operation but did have some
performance impact. However, your SA should be able to throttle it
doing it volume by volume.
I considered it safe in the environment we were running but, hey, it
was tested many many times before letting it in production. Platform
was HP so on Solaris it should work at lease as good.
Anyway until you test it really well - nothing is safe. As usual make
sure all backups are there and do it outside of active/peak hours and
etc.
What's the result of your corruptions by the way? Not Veritas itself. Is it?

We are experiencing some corruption on our T3's. The SA wants to mirror the
T3's to a nstor storage array. He would sync the T3s live. I think it would
be safer to shut down the databases and just move all of the files over. He
says it's 100% safe. I also think there would be performance degradation
during the synching and also with the mirroring to another Raid 5 array.
