I'm in the process of writing up a procedure for installing Solaris
recommended patches on a UNIX Solaris server that has a mirrored
Veritas Volume Manager Root Disk.

I'm assuming I can do the following:

1. Un-mirror the Root Disk.
2. Install patches.
3. Reboot system.
4. If all is ok mirror the Root Disk back to secondary disk
5. If the system will not reboot:
   - boot to secondary Root Disk (mirror)
   - mirror to primary Root Disk

Am I on the right track?

Thanks,

Mark
