HDLM-managed boot disks do not support a mirrored boot disk configuration

incorporating a volume manager such as SDS or VxVM. For this reason, you

cannot register an HDLM-managed boot disk in bootdg when using VxVM.

The following configurations are supported for HDLM-managed boot disks:

For SVM

¢

OS: Solaris 10

¢

RAID level: Mirroring (no more than three mirrors)

¢

Cluster: None

For ZFS

¢

OS: Solaris 10 or Solaris 11

¢

Single-disk configuration

¢

Cluster: None

storage systems, the Array Support Library of VxVM is required. If the
