Your procedure was correct. lsyserr (and disk_err) report physical daddrs, which are daddrs relative to the beginning of the physical disk volume, as opposed to the any of the logical volumes that may be on the disk. Running SALVOL after adding badspots to the badspot list is very important to set the trouble flags and to insure that noone else tries to use that block.
