The disks are hot pluggable. You need to issue commands to detach it before you pull out.
Its a very old system and it's design is such

In what ways does it disturb you? why would you like to change that?
I don't think you can.

you should analyze the messages whichever you see in the bios bootup screen for hints, which might help.

p2 should be the whole disk (backup slice) and not p0 right?

your windows would have been wiped off

Alot of information missing.. you're using iSCSI san boot or FC san boot? confusing.. if its FC , you need to change fp.conf. was any changes made to scsi_vhci.conf at all? If you want to turn off...

Thanks alot guys.. Conclusion is that, if I installed S11 using rpool whole disk, do not fall back on SVM. Instead continue using zfs. If installed OS using UFS with free slice, then use SVM. That's...

Yeah, I know the capabilities of ZFS. I have worked on it somewhat. But the thing now is, I need to create SVM volumes for some purpose and the host Im creating is not using UFS. So, my question is...

When I installed the OS, I used the whole disk and did not partition with UFS.

which h/w are you using? can you do a "soft-reset" of the system to power cycle and see if you can see the messages. IT SHOULD reset, probe and bring your OS back. If not, how did you got the OS up...

for root pool, use SMI label using format -e .
you can create the pool right away using a EFI labelled disk

nope, during live upgrade, it should not "disturb" your vxvm in any way

Hello, no one would newfs or mount slice 2. I suggest you prtvtoc your disk again, label it, then newfs slice 0, 3,4 or 6 eg and try mounting it

ensure you're using the correct controller

You Live upgrade to patch your global zone and local zones. At most, you will only need about 10min downtime to reboot and test/check. If any failures, revert back to your active BE.

Are you able to do a cold boot for the server? Prior to that ensure that the PSUs are ok.
If cold boot still does not work, you may need to check into the console message or boot the system in diag...
