Disk failure

Hr,
 This is strange! There must not have been enough room on one hot spare to
hold the old disks complete capacity.. Are your disks of different capacities?
Was the replacement disk (i.e. hot spare) the same size and brand as the old disk?
How was the replacement disk initilized?
What does the Solaris format (i.e. "format--->partition--->print") command show
for the way the disk was partitioned?
