Hi All,

 I have done a mirroring on my system. Now I need the
second disk to boot when the first crashes or at any
circumstances.

I have copied the bootblk on to the secondary HDD.
This is my 2ng HDD info
ls -l /dev/rdsk/c1t1d0s1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 74 Jun 6 14:05
/dev/rdsk/c1t1d0s1 -> ../.
./devices/pci@8,600000/SUNW,qlc@2/fp@0,0/ssd@w500000e0102d0be1,0:b,raw

I then gave
# eeprom nvramrc="devalias backup
/pci@8,600000/SUNW,qlc@2/fp@0,0/ssd@w500000e0102d0be1,0:b"

and whn I tried ot boot from my backup the system
starts booting from the net rather than the disk. Can
anyone let me know is there any pblm with my command
or what else should I do.
When I try boot disk1 the same thing happens. I t does
not boot from the disk it is booting from the HDD.

I have also tried the
ok> nvalias backup ...... command. Same result.

Thanks
Girish
