Managing Disk Volumes
57
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
created in that environment. One alternate medium is a network installation image
in single-user mode (refer to the Solaris 10 Installation Guide for information about
configuring and using network-based installations).
1. Determine which disk is the default boot device.
From the OpenBoot ok prompt, type the printenv command, and if necessary
the devalias command, to identify the default boot device. For example:
2. Type the boot net –s command.
3. Once the system has booted, use the raidctl(1M) utility to create a hardware
mirrored volume, using the default boot device as the primary disk.
See
“To Create a Hardware Mirrored Volume” on page 54
. For example:
4. Install the volume with the Solaris OS using any supported method.
The hardware RAID volume c0t0d0 appears as a disk to the Solaris installation
program.
Note –
The logical device names might appear differently on your system,
depending on the number and type of add-on disk controllers installed.
ok printenv boot-device
boot-device = disk
ok devalias disk
disk /pci@0/pci@0/pci@2/scsi@0/disk@0,0
ok boot net –s
# raidctl -c –r 1 c0t0d0 c0t1d0
Creating RAID volume c0t0d0 will destroy all data on member disks,
proceed
(yes/no)? yes
Volume c0t0d0 created
