Solaris 10 Volume Manager - adding slice to metadb
Hi all,
I added a new disk slice to the current metadb.
Below is what I see
I am missing the following flags.
p - replica's location was patched in kernel
l - locator for this replica was read successfully
o - replica active prior to last mddb configuration change
q1) Can anyone elaborate the meaning of 'p' and 'l' especially ?
These flags get added during next boot. As long as you see "u" flag for the new disk and no "UPPERCASE" flags (ie. WMDFSRB) present you are good with SVM.
Just ensure the
command executed after any disk change with the replaced device name. This command update the device relocation information. You can check this by running
and look for the last few lines of output
