Compare output of prtvtoc -s /dev/rdsk/boot disk with vxprint -htg bootdg

DiskOffs (Disk offset in 512 byte sectors) and length (same unit) define the
location on the disk of the subdisk
The 50GB/100GB issue is a non-issue. Specifying a new size for the volume
(and thus for each plex) will restrict VM to extending the length of the
plex by that amount. The remaining 67GB can be used for DRL, DCO, snapshots,

Your last two questions can be answered, yes. One VxFS spans a volume set. A
volume set is defined as multiple volumes. One volume contains application
data, one volume contains file system metadata, a third volume could contain
relocated files (based on your defined Relocation policy).
I am curious, do you mean you are not using VxVM to virtualize storage? If
so, then what volume management product are you using to support VxFS? If
you have defined VxVM volumes larger than the VxFS file system, then yes
