Hurm..

I guess this is what I get for having YDL-1.2.1 servers still around :)
It appears that pdisk isn't in a default 2.0 install, so I can assume the

should do what you want.

Standard warnings apply, backup your data (on all partitions, including
MacOS) before futzing with your partition tables.
