If you want to copy the partition table to another disk, perform
prtvtoc /dev/rdsk/cxtxdxs2 | fmthard -s - /dev/rdsk/cxtxdxs2
1st controller, target and disk should be the source and the 2nd cxtxdxs2 should be your dest disk.
Then newfs the slices accordingly.
After that, you can use ufsdump to copy the data into the relevant partitons.Smilie
