Clone 1 Hard disk fromIBM Intellipoint server with AIX 5.x
Hello to all,
Im having a new task in a new world (AIX - IBM Servers)
I have an IBM Server (Type - 9111-285 very old one) with one Hard disk (73 GB 10 K) with AIX 5.x, and I need to clone the existing disk to another with the same specifications.
Could you please give me some advice in order to do that ?
Does exist some software to do that ?
Some hardware device that I could use ?
Any documentation, procedures, steps ?
Thanks in advance ?
Really Apreciated.

NAME
chs - IBM ServeRAID PCI host adapter driver
DESCRIPTION
The chs driver is the IBM ServeRAID PCI controller driver.
PRECONFIGURATION
Known Problems and Limitations
To prevent data loss, a SCSI disk drive that is not defined as part of any physical pack within a logical drive will not be accessible
through the Solaris operating environment.
CONFIGURATION
Auto-configuration code determines whether the adapter is present at the configured address and what types of devices are attached to it.
The IBM ServeRAID is primarily used as a disk array (system drive) controller.
To configure the attached disk arrays, you must configure the controller (using the configuration utilities provided by the hardware manu-
facturer) before booting the Solaris operating environment You use the configuration utilities to set RAID levels, stripe parameters, cache
mechanisms and perform other functions. For more information, see the user manual supplied with your hardware.
