Solaris 9 x86 check disk mirror status
We have Proliant DL380 G2 running Solaris 9 x86
There are 6 physical disks installed which I believe are mirrored at hardware level to 3 sets to present 3 disks to the OS.

Is there any way to check the mirror status at OS level ?
I am guessing not and it may need a trip to site as we have no ilom access remotely but hoping someone has a different answer Smilie

Do you have a software hpacucli or hpqacucli installed?
Code:
pkginfo | egrep -i 'hpacucli|hpqacucli'
egrep -i 'hpacucli|hpqacucli' /var/sadm/install/contents

It appears they are not installed:

Code:
# pkginfo | egrep -i 'hpacucli|hpqacucli'
# egrep -i 'hpacucli|hpqacucli' /var/sadm/install/contents

I have only seen Solaris 10 packages, and for DL380 G5 and higher.
So, maybe what you have was/is not supported.
I fear you have to go to the server room and look at the status LEDs...
