I run the vxprint -g rootdg on my Solaris machine (HW- NETRA T2000)

As we see here - rootvol & rootdisk7vol has missing lines (swapvol is OK)

How to fix the rootvol & rootdisk7vol in order to bring the missing lines as we see then in swapvol ?

  vxprint -g rootdg

I'll look for my old documentation on mirroring root disk with Veritas Volume Manager since it is not quite as simple as the rest.

The simple way to mirror the volumes in rootdg is the same as with any other diskgroup.

vxassist -g rootdg mirror rootdisk7vol rootmirror
vxassist -g rootdg mirror rootvol rootmirror

This will create the lines you're missing the only problem is that there are problems booting with disks that have been mirrored like this if you ever decide to boot from physical slices.

I'll try to find my old documentation on the subject.
