Unmirror and Remirror for Solaris 10

Personally I prefer the manual way.
1. I will unmount filesystems that can be unmounted.
2. I will detach submirrors, and clear mirrors.
3. I will edit vfstab, and use the command "metaroot cXtXdXsX" that will edit /etc/system for me.
4. I will try to boot the system with only raw disks, and confirm that I have to exact copies of the data, then I will go ahead.
By the way there's another way recommended if you have enough space. You can dedicate one slice (slice 3 for example), and ufsdump your root file system there. Then upgrade and see how it goes.
Good luck
