Usually on the host side all that is required is to use format to re-type the lun; choose "type" then "Auto Configure" then label the lun. That usually updates the disk geometry to reflect the new lun size. I seem to recall that after this you end up with a default label on the lun but if you make note of partition boundaries beforehand and recreate those partition boundaries exactly as they were before the data is preserved.
The new versions of veritas can do this automatically and they call it "Dynamic Lun Expansion". With zfs and the concept of storage pools it makes a lot of sense to me to just add more disks to the pool rather than resize existing disks.
