Default Reslicing disks

Can anybody out there remember how to reslice disks and volumes. Our
support people all claim to have forgotten (I never knew)

The problem:

Digging around in smit I think our current configuration is:

Physical disk hdisk4
Volume group vold3
Logical volume lvd3
File System d3

We have a single "spare" disk in the system mounted as /d3 - I need to
reslice this into two partitions and remount them as /d3 and /eht (for
example)

i can find where to rename /d3 to /eht, but cannot figure out how to
slice
out a new area.

I am sure I am missing a step as I go thru smit and I cannot figure out
how
to achieve this. I would like somebody to give me a step by step to do
this guide if possible

Many thanks EHT
