I've not had to do a flar restore but you can instruct JET (sun jumpstart framework) to use a flar by setting the base_config_products to "flash sds" (and provide the same SDS settings you used for the first jumpstart) and flash_archive_locations to an NFS url for your flar.
If you still want to take a backup of the data via the devices, you can either provide one of the two mirrors or the mirror metadevice itself, either will work just fine. When you do the restore, you can just restore it onto the main mirror metadevice, or if that's not created yet, the real disk device then mirror it up again. SDS is quite flexible like that
Sing out if you need a hand with the process of breaking off a submirror or remirroring after the restore without interrupting service etc.
I have AIX 5.1
I ran these commands and was not able to see what disk were mirrored to what. I thought this is what I should do?

We use SW mirroring (RAID1) using SVM for our SUN servers (which we OEM to end clients with our application on). When I need to make a tape backup for the server (disk), I disable mirroring and perform backup of the entire disk to tape using ufsdump. This process requires an outage and sensitive as...

c1541 can be used both in interactive and batch mode. It will start in interactive mode if no images and no options are specified or if
one image is specified; when started in interactive mode, command line editing and command history are available.
Each command line option for use in batch mode has an interactive mode counterpart, that is shown in parenthesis.

-delete image files... (delete files...)

-validate image (validate)

-copy image oldname1 [oldname2...] newname (copy oldname1 [oldname2...] newname)
concatenate oldname1, oldname2... into newname on image (can be used to copy files).
-create image dump ['descr'] (create image dump ['descr']
build image from raw dump file dump (i.e. convert from D64 to X64 file).
-tape image tapeimage [files...] (tape image tapeimage [files...])
transfer files from tapeimage to image (default is all files).
-read image 1541name [fsname] (read 1541name [fsname])
extract 1541name from the disk image into fsname (1541name by default) from image.
-extract image (extract).
extract all files from image.
-write image fsname [1541name] (write fsname [1541name])
write fsname to image as 1541name (fsname by default). (works with P00 files as well).

show disk blocks in hex format.
-info image ['descr'] (info ['descr'])
