[HPADM] Mirrored disk failure in root volume group

We have a two disk root volume group, mirrored using Mirrordisk/UX,
running HP-UX 10.20. One of the disks has failed and we have
scheduled a replacement for Saturday afternoon. We cannot run any
vgxxx commands, since they hang the session.

1) How can we determine if the primary or alternate disk has failed.

2) Any quick and dirty steps to remove and replace the faulty disk.

We haven't had any HP disk issues in a while, so these skills are a
little rusty. TIA. Will summarize.
