Reallocating Snapmirror Destination volumes

I'm pretty sure you can't do this, so the question I have is what you do to reallocate the volumes when you add a bunch of new disks to the aggregates the disks reside in.  Normally, I'd run a full reallocate to redistribute the data across the new disk.  However, I can't run a reallocate on a SM destination.  I get the obivous error stating the volume is read-only.  This makes sense to me, but at the same time I'm at a loss for solution.


The only thing I can think of is to do the following:

1) Break the mirror.

2) Reallocate the volume.

3)  Resync

Is there an easier or better solution than this?
