disksuite mirroring d0 to d2 and d1 to d3

I have a SOlaris 10 v240 server. I'm installing disksuite to mirror the root drive D0 to D2. I also have one partition on disk 1 that I want to mirror to D3. I am not using ZFS right now.

Can I add that to my initial mirroring configuration or can I only mirror 1 drive to 1 drive?

Can I add that later by creating state databases on disks D1 and D3 and adding the mirror?

Thank you

thank you. I got the info on the sun forum that I could add to the replicas afterwards and just create the new mirror of the slice on the 2nd disk. I could also create the database on a new partition on the 2nd disk ask well.

thank you for your help
