Thanks for your response. I referred the primus solution. It seems that the -o override option was used and also the volume was mirrored as a part of the relayout.
I am not sure why and how safe to use -o override option. I guess there is some internal check done by vxassist with the storage to ensure the operation is safe.
Is it required to mirror the volume for replayout to work from striped-striped change?
In the message file, I see theses messages but not sure if they are related to relayput operation.

Sam unfortunatly I'm not a Vx-expert .. It's hard to guess the real problem since you are posting a lot of symptoms but I can't find the root cause ..
If you fear -o option, you can always open an informative SR and ask our experts to give you a formal answer. Or you can wait a little and wait for some more answers in this forum
This error is returned when the original disk is an EMC disk.
Remove the VRTSfas package if present and restart vxconfigd (vxconfigd -k).
Relayout operations require temporary disk space. This temporary space is allocated from the free space available in the disk group that contains the volume being relayed out, and is in the form of a mirrored (two-plex) sub-volume. The size of the temporary space mainly depends on the size and type of the volume being relayed out.
The relayout operation fails to run since there is no space available for the temporary two-plex sub-volume. Only one disk in the disk group has free space. There are two ways to resolve this problem. One is to add an extra disk to the disk group. The second option is to try and shrink the volume (and VERITAS File System file system) so that some free space will become available on disk01 and disk02. This will enable the relayout operation to create the temporary sub-volume and commence successfully.

The storage is DMX-3
Please advise.
Thanks
