How to reattach a mirror?
OK, I upgraded to the latest version of Solaris 10. Perhaps 'upgrade' isn't the right term because I reinstalled the root/boot drive with Solaris 10. Prior to this I had 4 physical drives. The first two had "/" and "/usr", the other two had a /var/audit and /home. I initially booted from cdrom and reinstalled using a flash archive. I ended up with what I had, when I did a more on /etc/release it was the same version. SO I reinstalled and it broke all the mirrors. I can mount the old '/' and old /usr/ as single drives. What I want to do is recover the /var/audit and /export/home. I inherited this system, but this is how the two were before. I believe the db are on slice 7. How do I recover them:
/dev/md/dsk/d30 /dev/md/rdsk/d30 /var/audit ufs 2 yes nosuid
/dev/md/dsk/d31 /dev/md/rdsk/d31 /export/home ufs 2 yes nosuid

Hi,
I have an ssa filesystem to move to san. We don't want any downtime. I heard that you can do a mirroring of existing file system on the san. The file system is a type of either raid 0, raid 1, or raid 5.
Anyone know how to do this?
Thanks in advance,
