How to change Type auto:SVM to auto:cdsdisk in veritas.
1. Check disk
root #  vxdisk list
DEVICE       TYPE            DISK         GROUP        STATUS
disk_0       auto:none       -            -            online invalid
disk_1       auto:none       -            -            online invalid
disk_2       auto:cdsdisk    datakudg01   datakudg     online
disk_3       auto:SVM        -            -            SVM
disk_4       auto:cdsdisk    datadg01     datadg       online
2. Try initialized disk_3 under SVM to veritas
root # /etc/vx/bin/vxdisksetup -i disk_3
VxVM vxdisksetup ERROR V-5-2-0 Disk disk_3 is in use by SVM. Slice(s) 2 and 6 contain SVM (or former) metadata.
If you still want to initialize this device for VxVM use, please delete the metadata by running 'metadb' command if it is still active, and then remove the SVM signature from each of these slice(s) as follows:
    dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/vx/rdmp/disk_3s[n] oseek=16 bs=512 count=1
    [n] is the slice number.
For solve this case :
1. using dd command
root # dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/vx/rdmp/disk_3s2 oseek=16 bs=512 count=1
1+0 records in
1+0 records out
2. Try to initialize
root # /etc/vx/bin/vxdisksetup -i disk_3
3. Check status disk
vxdisk list
DEVICE       TYPE            DISK         GROUP        STATUS
disk_0       auto:none       -            -            online invalid
disk_1       auto:none       -            -            online invalid
disk_2       auto:cdsdisk    datakudg01   datakudg     online
disk_3       auto:cdsdisk    -            -            online
disk_4       auto:cdsdisk    datadg01     datadg       online
