Solaris Volume Manager: Break Mirror and use to make a 2nd machine

Hello:

I have a machine built on 2 drives and mirrors have been created to a second set of 2 drives (4 total) on the same platform. SVM.

Might anyone provide guidance to create a second machine by breaking the mirrored set, moving the two mirrors (2) to another machine (same platform type), and making them bootable; thus creating a second machine?

if the mirroring is done properly the drives should be bootable...
