Hello all
We've just bought a T2000. It has two disks and I'm trying to figure out how to create a mirror of the boot disk. I understand that I have to boot into single user mode from DVD and then use the raidctl command to set up the mirror and label the volume afterwards.

New to the boards here so please bear with me!
I have a T2000 server with Solaris 10 installed on it. Disk 0 is the only disk currently being used, as I do NOT have a RAID set up. Disk 1 is just sitting there looking pretty.
I'd like to set up a mirrored RAID in order to fully utilize both... (5 Replies)

Hi All
I have a Sun T2000 server. Couple of years ago I had configured and mirrored the boot drive with an other drive using hardware RAID 1 using raidctl command.

Hi all
I've just received my T3-1. It has 8 disks and I would like to configure RAID1 on the disks. The Sun documentation states that you can either use the OpenBoot PROMP utility called Fcode or you can use software via the Solaris OS.
The documentation doesn't make it clear if:

OS: Solaris 10 - installed on c1t0d0.
Plan to use software raid (veritas volume mgr) on c1t2d0 disk.
After format and label the disk, still not able to detect using vxdiskadm.
Question:
Should I remove the hardware raid on c1t2d0 first?

CISS(4) BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual CISS(4)NAME
ciss -- HP/Compaq Smart ARRAY 5/6 RAID controllers
SYNOPSIS
ciss* at pci? function ?
DESCRIPTION
The ciss driver provides support for the CISS interface implemented by fifth and later generations of the HP/Compaq Smart ARRAY family of
controllers.
The CISS interface is defined in the document entitled CISS Command Interface for SCSI-3 Support Open Specification, Version 1.04, Valence
Number 1, Compaq Computer Corporation, 2000/11/27.
This driver supports several Compaq and HP controllers implementing the CISS interface, including:
o Compaq Smart Array 5300 version 1
o Compaq Smart Array 5300 version 2
o Compaq Smart Array 5i version 1
o Compaq Smart Array 5i version 2
o HP Smart Array 5312
o HP Smart Array 6i
o HP Smart Array 641
o HP Smart Array 642
o HP Smart Array 6400
o HP Smart Array 6400 EM
o HP Smart Array E200
o HP Smart Array E200i
o HP Smart Array P400
o HP Smart Array P400i
o HP Smart Array P600
o HP Smart Array P800
o HP Smart Array V100
o HP Smart Array 1 through 13
These controllers support RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5, JBOD, and superpositions of those configurations.
Although the controllers are actual RAID controllers, the ciss driver makes them look just like SCSI controllers. All RAID configuration
must be done through the controllers' BIOSes.
Hardware from previous generations of this product family may be supported by the cac(4) driver.

The ciss driver first appeared in NetBSD 3.1.
