Problem in SVM after live upgrade
Hi
I am new to live upgrade.
I would like to tell you about my new setup, where my boot disk(c0d0) is mirrored with secondary disk(c0d1). I have remove the secondary whole disk(C0d1) from the mirror, so that I can do live upgrade on this secondary disk.
I have done live upgrade on s0 partition of c0d1 disk & install the latest patch cluster on it for this I have created a new BE called newliveupg-env. I have booted my system from it after implmenting latest patch cluster on it.
My Problem is that after boot from newliveupg-env(c0d1s0). I wanted to mirror secondary disk( having latest kernal patch & New BE) with primary disk ( having old kernal patch set ). After this my c0d1s0(secondary disk's slice0) become primary disk slice & vice versa for S0 partition on c0d0s0 as I have not touch the other two partition(having applications) on c0d0 disk.
After booting from newliveupg-env(c0d1s0), when I run the metastat command, it is showing(c0d0 disk is under SVM control. Please find the output below.
Now please let me know how do I proceed from here to do above process.

So you just have to mirror current disk. First remove old boot environment (ludelete), then follow those instructions: Example?Creating a Mirror From root (/) (Solaris Volume Manager Administration Guide)
