Very true.

If your Dbvbols are not in a hardware raid or mirrored environment, the
correct (or paranoid) procedure would be to create a new 12 GB dbvol AND
a 12 GB dbvol mirror -- and THEN delete the 9 GB dbvol and the 9 GB
mirror. It takes a bit longer, but it is the clean way to go.

Because there is a period during which your volume is not mirrored, in
this procedure.
