How to make an exact image copy of a SCSI hard drive in Solaris 8 OS?
To Solaris 8 Experts,
Please let me know what's the best method / procedure as well as the Solaris 8 commands for accomplishing the following tasks on a production Sun Enterprise 250 Server running Sun Solaris 8 Operating System:
1. Make an exact image/copy of the SCSI Hard Drive in the Sun E250 Server.
2. Use the image produced in step 1 above and copy it on to a new SCSI hard drive to be placed in a different Sun E250 Server to be used in the lab environment.
Please explain the step-by-step procedure and/or commands, and provide me with links to relevant potential documentation online (if available).
Thank you for your help.

exacct::object::group
Exacct::Object::Group(3PERL) Perl Library Functions Exacct::Object::Group(3PERL)
NAME
Exacct::Object::Group - exacct group manipulation
SYNOPSIS
use Sun::Solaris::Exacct::Object;
my $ea_grp = Sun::Solaris::Exacct::Object::Group->new(
& EXT_GROUP | &EXC_DEFAULT | &EXD_GROUP_PROC);
DESCRIPTION
This module is used for manipulating libexacct(3LIB) Group objects. A libexacct Group object is represented as an opaque reference blessed
into the Sun::Solaris::Exacct::Object::Group class, which is a subclass of the Sun::Solaris::Exacct::Object class. The Items within a Group
are stored inside a Perl array. A reference to the array can be accessed with the inherited value() method. The individual Items within a
Group can be manipulated with the normal Perl array syntax and operators. All data elements of the array must be derived from the
Sun::Solaris::Exacct::Object class. Group objects can also be nested inside each other simply by adding an existing Group as a data Item.
Constants
None.
Functions
None.
Class methods
Class methods include those inherited from the Sun::Solaris::Exacct::Object base class, plus the following:
new($catalog, @objects)
This method creates and returns a new Sun::Solaris::Exacct::Object::Group. The catalog tag can be either an integer or a
Sun::Solaris::Exacct::Catalog. The catalog tag should be a valid catalog tag for a Perl exacct Group object. The @objects parameter is
a list of Sun::Solaris::Exacct::Object to be stored inside the Group. A copy of all the passed Items is taken and any Group objects are
recursively copied. The contents of the returned Group object can be accessed with the array returned by the value method.
Object methods
as_hash()
This method returns the contents of the group as a hash reference. It uses the string value of each item's catalog ID as the hash entry
key and the scalar value returned by value() as the hash entry value. This form should be used if there are no duplicate catalog tags
in the group.
This method and its companion as_hashlist() are the fastest ways to access the contents of a Group.
as_hashlist()
This method returns the contents of the group as a hash reference. It uses the string value of each item's catalog id as the hash entry
key and an array of the scalar values returned by value() as the hash entry value for all the items that share a common key. This form
should be used if there might be duplicate catalog tags in the group.
This method and its companion as_hash() are the fastest ways to access the contents of a Group.
Exports
None.
