Yes, after running the command reboot -- -r I could see now the creation of new devpath /dev/rmt/1cbn, and through the netbackup software i reconnected the missing path to this one. Things are ok so far and the backup started as expected.

I realy appreciate your help.

I have another request collegues.


I am interested to replace a faulty hard disk which is not mirorred. it is containing ex ./dev/vx/rdsk/Vol1 file system.

But i have some ideas in my mind and I wish if you can correct me if wrong

1- backup the files system using ufsdump utility to a tape
ufsdump 0uf /dev/rmt/0m /Vol1
2- umount the file system
3- Replace the faulty hard disk.
4- create new file system on the new hard disk
newfs /dev/rdsk/c1t1d0s0
5- Mount /Vol1 on the ne file system.
mount /dev/dsk/c1t1d0s0 /Vol1
6- Restore from backup.
ufsrestore -rvf /dev/rmt/0m

Are these steps correct particularly point no 4.?

NAME
device_maps - device_maps file SYNOPSIS
/etc/security/device_maps DESCRIPTION
The device_maps file contains access control information about each physical device. Each device is represented by a one line entry of the form: device-name : device-type : device-list : where device-name This is an arbitrary ASCII string naming the physical device. This field contains no embedded white space or non- printable characters. device-type This is an arbitrary ASCII string naming the generic device type. This field identifies and groups together devices of like type. This field contains no embedded white space or non-printable characters. device-list This is a list of the device special files associated with the physical device. This field contains valid device special file path names separated by white space. The device_maps file is an ASCII file that resides in the /etc/security directory. Lines in device_maps can end with a `' to continue an entry on the next line. Comments may also be included. A `#' makes a comment of all further text until the next NEWLINE not immediately preceded by a `'. Leading and trailing blanks are allowed in any of the fields. The device_maps file must be created by the system administrator before device allocation is enabled. This file is owned by root, with a group of sys, and a mode of 0644. EXAMPLES
Example 1: A sample device_maps file # scsi tape st1: rmt: /dev/rst21 /dev/nrst21 /dev/rst5 /dev/nrst5 /dev/rst13 /dev/nrst13 /dev/rst29 /dev/nrst29 /dev/rmt/1l /dev/rmt/1m /dev/rmt/1 /dev/rmt/1h /dev/rmt/1u /dev/rmt/1ln /dev/rmt/1mn /dev/rmt/1n /dev/rmt/1hn /dev/rmt/1un /dev/rmt/1b /dev/rmt/1bn: FILES
