[SunHELP] Mirroring a disk

[Low, Adam]

Hi,

I'm just giving it a try now on a spare box, this is this the plan:

; Copy the partitioning info across.
prtvtoc /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s0 | fmthard -s - /dev/rdsk/c0t1d0s0

; Copy each individual slice.
dd if=/dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s0 of=/dev/rdsk/cot1d1s0 

; Reboot and prey !
Ermm...

Cheers,
Adam
