I have Solaris-10 (release-7) box without any non global zone. I have a very critical change after couple of days from application side. For safer side, we want to keep few level of backups just in case of faliure. This server is having three pool
Code:
root@prod_ddoa01:/# zpool list
NAME SIZE USED AVAIL CAP HEALTH ALTROOT
cvs_app_pool 165G 159G 6.50G 96% ONLINE -
iw_app_pool 1.11T 739G 400G 64% ONLINE -
rpool 136G 109G 26.6G 80% ONLINE -
root@prod_ddoa01:/#
I will create a lu copy with lucreate. Apart from it, can I pull one disk out of the server while I shut down the server ? Just in case of failure of application, I will pull out disk_0 and insert disk_1 (which was pulled out) and bring server up. Does it make sense ?
Also, I am not sure if lu will conflict with this procedure. And if I follow it, do I need to run some commands to break zfs rpool mirror ?

This function is starting with release 9, while my release is 7.
If I shut down server and remove disk (physically) from server and then bring up server, that should work ?
And if this works, how will I attach (resynch) both disk after my activity got completed and I reinserted disk inside server ?
I have a 240GB disk as rpool. I have installed Solaris 11.3 to a partition which is 110GB. Now I have another 130GB which is unallocated. I want to use that additional space as a temporary folder to be shared between Solaris and Linux. The additional space had no /dev/dsk/c2t4... entry so I used... (8 Replies)

Hi everyone,
I am doing housekeeping of my Solaris 11 for zfs snapshot to reduce the snapshot size. I have already cleared the / file system, however the rpool size still not reduced.

I'd like to finish setting up this system and then move the secondary or primary disk to another system that is the exact same hardware.
I've done things like this in the past with ufs and disk suite mirroring just fine. But I have yet to do it with a zfs root pool mirror.
Are there any... (1 Reply)
I've looked a little but haven't found a solid answer, assuming there is one.
What's better, hardware mirroring or ZFS mirroring? Common practice for us was to use the raid controllers on the Sun x86 servers. Now we've been using ZFS mirroring since U6. Any performance difference? Any other... (3 Replies)
