using zpool snapshot for deployment of physical boxes
Hi,
I'm trying to use the method of taking a rpool snapshot of a "gold system" and using that to deploy to other physical boxes.
I normally delete the /etc/path to inst file, and reboot, and it takes care of any devices / hardware errors I get.
But, my controller numbers are changing, and id like to not have this happen.
i.e. c0t0d0 is now c8t0d0
Is there a way to manipulate these id's back to their original?
In particular, the issue is with a tape drive, and netbackup doesnt like the controller number change.
Any help is appreciated! Thanks..
Brian

Description
The SCSI tape driver provides a standard tape drive interface as described in This is a driver for any Digital SCSI tape device.
For the TZK10 QIC format tape drive, the densities supported are QIC-24 (read only) block size of 512 byte blocks, QIC-120, and QIC-150
read/write block size of 512 byte blocks, and QIC-320 read/write block size of 1024 byte blocks. With QIC format style tapes all reads and
writes must be in multiple of the block size. This is a requirement of fixed block tape drives because record boundaries are not pre-
served. The QIC densities are selected using the following special device names:
QIC-24 Fixed block size.
QIC-120 Fixed block size.
QIC-150 Fixed block size.
QIC-320 Fixed block size.
With all fixed block tape devices a of a file to the tape must be padded out. An example of this is a of which has a size of approximately
3800 bytes.
dd if=/etc/gettytab of=/dev/rmt0h bs=10k conv=sync
or
dd if=/etc/gettytab of=/dev/rmt0l bs=512 conv=sync
The option of pads the output to block size.
This driver also supports n-buffered reads and writes to the raw tape interface (used with streaming tape drives). See for further
details.
Tape Support
TZ30, TZK50, TLZ04, TSZ05, TKZ08, TZK10
