Boot disk?

Hi, all...

I have these question and I hope you can help me:

I have a SunFire 480 running Solaris 9, 2 CPU's and 4 GB of RAM, I
mirrored the boot disk using DiskSuite, I create an alias on OBP prompt
by usin nvalias and added that alias to the boot-device using setenv, I
can boot the server manually (I can type boot and the device I wanted
form the ok prompt) and I can see what device I used to boot typing
prtconf -pv | grep bootpath.

The problem is when I tried to simulate a faliure on the boot disk,
puling out one of the disks and forced to the server to boot from the
other disk (I shutdown the server, pul out the disk, turn on the
server), the server goes to the single user mode, but when I put the
disk back and boot again, the server boots perfect.

I wonder if there's a way to force that the system boots with one disk?

TIA
