Hi all,

the output from metastat d0 is as below

Quote:
# metastat d0
d0:Mirror
Submirror 0:d10
State: Okay
Pass:1
Read option: roundrobin ( default )
Write option : parallel (default)
Size :12362400 blocks ( 5.9 GB)

d10: Submirror of d0
State: Okay
Size :12362400 blocks ( 5.9 GB)
Stripe: 0
Device Start Block Dbase State Reloc Hot Spare
c0t0d0s0 0 No Okay Yes

This got resolved !!

I commented the /etc/vfstab entry and later run the metaroot with /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s0 and rebooted the system and cleared the volume with meatclear -r d0

You cannot unmount the "/" filesystem. Or you will never be able to mount it for booting. What you meant was to remove the root filesystem from SVM control right? If you had mentioned this clearly enough, the rest could have understood you better Smilie
