R: [SunHELP] disk mirroring

[Ivan Kovalev]

Disk Suite and Veritas are competing products, and you should be fine
using either. Both have command line interface, not only GUI. If you
have Disk Suite installed (this one is better then Veritas in terms of
price as it is free), look for the family of meta* commands like
metastat, metainit, metareplace etc. Man pages are located under
/usr/opt/SUNWmd/man (default).

I am using Disk Suite as well as manual mirroring of system drive using
ufsdump ( I posted the script for this earlier).
