Well, I used rsync with good success. Just create the new volume group(s)
and/or logical volumes. Then create empty filesystems. Then you rsync to
create a "mirror" ot the old filesystem.

vgcreate -e 8192 -p 64 -s 32 vgabc /dev/dsk/c1t5d0 /dev/dsk/c2t5d0
lvcreate -n lvabc -L 20000 /dev/vgabc
newfs -F vxfs /dev/vgabc/rlvabc
mount /dev/vgabc/lvabc /nabc
/usr/local/bin/rsync -avz --delete --inplace /oabc/ /nabc

Assuming /oabc contains your old filesystem, /nabc will be the new one.

Yours, Hans Martin.
