It's my first time installing Solaris on T2000 server.
I have 2 72GB HD's on it.
After configuring HW raid and running raidctl command I get this output:
Why does it show 310M and not 68GB?
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks

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.

Hi everyone,
I am having a problem when running devfsadm. We have many T2000, but on one of them, that is connected to our SAN, devfsadm reports no new disks. If a reconfiguration reboot is done, the system reports the new disk. But only with a reboot. We have Solaris10 installed and Veritas... (13 Replies)

Hi,
I have a root with hardware RAID on c0t0d0 and c0t2d0. I would like to set the boot device sequence in OBP for both hdds.
I have checked in ls -l /dev/rdsk/ for the path of c0t2d0 but it does not exist. Can anyone shed some lights on this?

Hi, a couple of T2000 servers did not show the component status and the output was too short. There was a patch that needed to be installed. I also updated to the latest recommended patch cluster and OBP patch.

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 setup a RAID 5 with 5 drives, one failed, hardware failure so I physically removed it from the raid after powering the machine off then powered it back on and my raid was still good but no 5th drive.

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.
Following is the hardware RAID output.

raidctl(1M) System Administration Commands raidctl(1M)NAME
raidctl - RAID hardware utility
SYNOPSIS
raidctl -c disk1 disk2
raidctl -d disk1
raidctl [-f] -F filename controller...
raidctl -l [controller...]
DESCRIPTION
The raidctl utility creates, deletes, or displays RAID volumes of the LSI1030 HW Raid controllers that include RAID support. The utility
also updates firmware/fcode/BIOS for both RAID and non-RAID controllers.
The raidctl utility requires privileges that are controlled by the underlying file-system permissions. Only privileged users can manipulate
the RAID system configuration. If a non-privileged user attempts to create or delete a RAID volume, the command fails with EPERM.
Without options, raidctl displays the current RAID configuration on all exisiting controllers.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
-c disk1 disk2 (for on board)
Create a mirror using disk1 and disk2. Replace the contents of disk2 with the contents of disk1. Specify disk1 and disk2 in canonical
form, for example, c0t0d0.
When you create a a RAID volume, the RAID volume assumes the identity of the first target in the disk pair (disk1). The second target
(disk2) disappears from the system. Therefore, the RAID volume appears as one disk.
To have a successful RAID creation, there must not already be a RAID configuration present on the specified controller. Additionally,
the secondary disk must not be mounted, as it has all its data erased and replaced with the primary disk's data.
-d disk1 (for on board)
Delete the RAID volume specified as disk1.
Specify disk1 in canonical form, for example, c0t0d0.
-f (for HBA)
Force an update. Do not prompt.
-F filename controller (for HBA)
Update the firmware running on the specified controller (controller).
-l [controller ...] (for on board)
List the system's RAID configuration. If controller is specified, list RAID configurations for controller.
Output from the -l lists the following information:
RAID Volume Displays logical RAID volume name.
RAID Status Displays RAID status as either RESYNCING (disks are syncing), DEGRADED RAID is operating with reduced functionality),
OK (operating optimally), or FAILED (non-functional).
RAID Disk Displays RAID disk name.
Disk Status Displays disk status as either OK or FAILED.
EXAMPLES
Example 1: Creating the RAID Configuration
The following command creates the RAID configuration:
# raidctl -c c0t0d0 c0t1d0
RAID Volume 'c0t0d0' created
Example 2: Displaying the RAID Configuration
The following command displays the RAID configuration:
# raidctl
RAID RAID RAID Disk
Volume Status Disk Status
----------------------------------------
c0t0d0 RESYNCING c0t0d0 OK
c0t1d0 OK
Example 3: Deleting the RAID Configuration
The following command deletes the RAID configuration:
# raidctl -d c0t0d0
RAID Volume 'c0t0d0' deleted
Example 4: Updating Flash Images on the Controller
The following command updates flash images on the controller:
# raidctl -F lsi1030.fw 0
Update flash image on controller 0? (y/N): y
Flash updated successfully
EXIT STATUS
The following exit values are returned:
0 Successful completion.
1 Invalid command line input.
2 Request operation failed.
