System Failed to boot
When the system attempts to boot, it fails to find a valid device as required by the boot-device path at device alias “disk”.
screen not found. Can't open input device. ...Now only way to boot is from OK prompt and find devalias for corresponding to the veritas mirror:
ok devalias vx-rootmirror /pci@1f,4000/scsi@3/disk@1,0:a vx-rootdisk /pci@1f,4000/scsi@3/disk@0,0:a . . .Boot the system from the mirror device “vx-rootmirror”:
ok boot vx-rootmirrorAs the system boots, Veritas volume manager detects that the volumes on the rootdisk are not accessible, and detaches those plexes from the root volumes. In spite of this, the system is able to boot cleanly from the mirror device with no operator action required.

The administrator replaces the failed disk with a new disk of the same geometry. Depending on the system model, the disk replacement may require that the system be powered down. Once the operating system can “see” the new disk c0t0d0 via the format command, the administrator tells Veritas volume manager to rescan the system via the “vxdctl enable” command.

Remove a disk for replacement
Menu: VolumeManager/Disk/RemoveForReplace
Use this menu operation to remove a physical disk from a disk
group, while retaining the disk name. This changes the state
for the disk name to a "removed" disk. If there are any
initialized disks that are not part of a disk group, you will be
given the option of using one of these disks as a replacement.

The following volumes will lose mirrors as a result of this
operation:
rootvol swapvol var
No data on these volumes will be lost.
The requested operation is to remove disk rootdisk from disk group
rootdg. The disk name will be kept, along with any volumes using
the disk, allowing replacement of the disk.
Select "Replace a failed or removed disk" from the main menu
when you wish to replace the disk.
Continue with operation? [y,n,q,?] (default: y) y
Removal of disk rootdisk completed successfully.

Replace a failed or removed disk
Menu: VolumeManager/Disk/ReplaceDisk
Use this menu operation to specify a replacement disk for a disk
that you removed with the "Remove a disk for replacement" menu
operation, or that failed during use. You will be prompted for
a disk name to replace and a disk device to use as a replacement.
You can choose an uninitialized disk, in which case the disk will
be initialized, or you can choose a disk that you have already
initialized using the Add or initialize a disk menu operation.

The following disk device has a valid VTOC, but does not appear to have
been initialized for the Volume Manager. If there is data on the disk
that should NOT be destroyed you should encapsulate the existing disk
partitions as volumes instead of adding the disk as a new disk.

The requested operation is to initialize disk device c0t0d0 and
to then use that device to replace the removed or failed disk
rootdisk in disk group rootdg.
Continue with operation? [y,n,q,?] (default: y)
Replacement of disk rootdisk in group rootdg with disk device
