How to have S VolumeManager recognize the SolarisDisksuite RAID device?

I need to move a RAID 0+1 set, configured by disksuite 4.2.1, from a Solaris
8 to a solaris 9 system.

I wonder how to have SVM on Solaris 9 to recognize the Disksuite RAID device
without lossing any data or switching data around. Does SVM recognize SDS
automatically , or do I need special configurations? I wish to confirm
before I do it to an online system.

Each of my D1000 disks has a 10M partition for meta database, enough for SVM
metadb. But I know the SVM and SDS are using different metadbs.

Now my RAID 0+1 config is:

d23 -m d2 d3 1
d3 1 6 c3t8d0s0 c3t9d0s0 c3t10d0s0 c3t11d0s0 c3t10d0s6 c3t11d0s6 -i 64b
d2 1 6 c2t0d0s0 c2t1d0s0 c2t2d0s0 c2t3d0s0 c2t2d0s6 c2t3d0s6 -i 64b

With 6 stripes on 4 disks ( 2x18G, 2x36G) at each submirror.

Many thanks in advance.

Cheers,

Summer
