Default Mirroring problem...

Hello,
I have problem to create mksysb because many partitions are mirrored
but the mirroring don't works fine.
This is the result lsvg -l rootvg

# lsvg -l rootvg
rootvg:
LV NAME TYPE LPs PPs PVs LV STATE MOUNT

hd5 boot 1 1 1 closed/syncd N/A

hd10opt jfs2 10 18 3 open/syncd /opt

Do you know how can I repair this error ?

# lslv -l hd9var

All your voluimse are "syncd" so the data is all intact. The easiest
way to fix this is to (a) check that you will have enough space to
mirror all the data succesfully by adding the number of LPs,
multiplying by 2 and comparing with the total PPs in the output of
"lsvg rootvg". If you have enough space then b) make a mksysb. The (c)
use "rmlvcopy" to set the number of copies of each LV to one for each
LV where PPs > LPs. Then (d) use mirrorvg to setup the mirroring
correctly.

Hello,
Thank you for your response but I haven't understand everything:
LPS Sum : 258*2=516
PPs Sum : 358
FREE PPS :726

# lsvg -p rootvg
rootvg:
PV_NAME PV STATE TOTAL PPs FREE PPs FREE DISTRIBUTION
hdisk0 active 542 442
109..58..60..108..107
hdisk2 active 542 284
108..00..00..67..109

Do you think I have enough space ?
Is isn't dangerous to use "rmlvcopy" for rootvg ?
What is the procedure to use "rmlvcopy" ? Have I to use "rmlvcopy" for
all partitions and after I use "mirrorvg" or,I use "rmlvcopy" for each
partition and after each partition I use "mirrorvg" ?

Best Regards,
