▼ Create a Hardware Mirrored Volume of the
Default Boot Device
Due to the volume initialization that occurs on the disk controller when a new
volume is created, the volume must be configured and labeled using the
format(1M)
utility prior to use with the Solaris OS. See “Configure and Label a
Hardware RAID Volume for Use in the Solaris Operating System” on page 18 .
Because of this limitation, raidctl(1M) blocks the creation of a hardware RAID
volume if any of the member disks currently have a file system mounted.
This section describes the procedure required to create a hardware RAID volume
containing the default boot device. Since the boot device always has a mounted file
system when booted, an alternate boot medium must be employed, and the volume
# raidctl -c c0t0d0 c0t1d0
Creating RAID volume c0t0d0 will destroy all data on member disks,
proceed
