Disk Suite Issue

Hello:

I have a server that has a mirror on an external disk pack. The system disk
needs to be replaced and I am trying to save the mirrored data. However,
the metadb's only exist on the external pack and are only mountable as a
mirror. I cannot unmount the partitions as they are busy. No matter what I
try. The setup is thus:

Solaris 7
DiskSuite 4.2

bash# metadb
         flags first blk block count
      a m pc luo 16 1034 /dev/dsk/c1t1d0s7
      a pc luo 1050 1034 /dev/dsk/c1t1d0s7
      a pc luo 16 1034 /dev/dsk/c1t2d0s7
      a pc luo 1050 1034 /dev/dsk/c1t2d0s7
      a pc luo 16 1034 /dev/dsk/c1t2d0s6
      a pc luo 16 1034 /dev/dsk/c1t1d0s6

bash# metastat -p
d0 -m d10 d11 1
d10 1 1 c1t1d0s0
d11 1 1 c1t2d0s0
d1 -m d12 d13 1
d12 1 1 c1t1d0s1
d13 1 1 c1t2d0s1

System disk is completely separate from his mirror.

I have replaced the system disk. The old one is still available, just on
it's last legs. How can I get this mirror available on the new system disk.
Been at it for most of the day and am very bleary eyed. Any help is
appreciated.

Regards,

Lauri-
