Hello,
I have a Solaris 8 system with several RAID 0 and RAID
1 filesystems created with Solstice Disk Suite (SDS)
Now, I believe that SDS was incorporated into Solaris
9 & 10 (and renamed to Solaris Volume Manager.) I was
wondering how I could access my RAID filesystems if I
lost the root filesystem and had to boot from CD.
The Solaris 8 CD does not support SDS (it was an
optional package.) But, I thought if I used a Solaris
9 or Solaris 10 install CD, I would be able to
configure them to be able to access the SDS
metadevices.
But, when I finally tried it, I was not successful.
It seemed to me that I should have just needed to use
"metadb -a <slices containing metadb replicates>"
Any advice for what I need to do? I know where all
the metadb replicates are located.
I would think this would be a fairly common task
(recoving data from metadevices if the root filsystem
failes) but I have not been able to find any answers.
Thanks,
Doug
