Creating an image of a mirrored disks
Hi guys,
I havent done this before but iam trying to create an image of a mirrorred drive.
Correct me if iam wrong, but when i have two disks setup in raid configuration and have them mirrored in solaris. It then defines at one entity.
How would i create a "flar" image of that one entity as two seperate drives? or do i have to create a flar image for indivudual drives seperately?
The other part of the question is how would you restore the flar image? (which i will ask next if i get the first question answered)
Thanks

CPMCP(1) User commands CPMCP(1)
NAME
cpmcp - copy files from and to CP/M disks
SYNOPSIS
cpmcp [-f format] [-p] [-t] image user:file file
cpmcp [-f format] [-p] [-t] image user:file ... directory
cpmcp [-f format] [-p] [-t] image file user:file
cpmcp [-f format] [-p] [-t] image file ... user:
DESCRIPTION
cpmcp copies one or more files to or from a CP/M disk. When copying multiple files, the last argument must be a drive or directory. The
drive letter does not matter because the device is specified by the image, it is only used to specify which direction you want to copy.
The user number is specified after the drive letter, if omitted user 0 is used.
You can use * and ? in CP/M file names, which have the same meaning in sh(1) file name patterns.
OPTIONS
-f format
Use the given CP/M disk format instead of the default format.
-p Preserve time stamps when copying files from CP/M to UNIX (not implemented for copying the other way so far).
-t Convert text files between CP/M and UNIX conventions.
RETURN VALUE
Upon successful completion, exit code 0 is returned.
ERRORS
Any errors are indicated by exit code 1.
FILES
/etc/cpmtools/diskdefs CP/M disk format definitions
