Move root disk to new server
Hi,
I need to do an installation where I have identical hardware at both sites and create the installation at one site and take the disk to the other site. Question: Do I need to do anything special for the OS to come up properly?

thanks.

yeah, should be fine, just do a reconfiguration reboot on the second site to be sure.

Thanks. To thicken the issue, I'm running VxVM. I guess I'll need to install the VxVM license at the new site. Do I install the license at the ok prompt prior to the first boot -r command?

No, the root disk will be an encapsulated UFS filesystem, and will boot. You should boot and then apply the license.

Actually, thinking about this further is could be best to unencasulate the disk before moving it and reencapsuleate it at the new site.
