T2000 - raidctl - how to?

From: Mike O (ora7dba@yahoo.com)

Has anyone w/a T2000 utilized the internal raid controller to do mirroring?

We have a new T2000 that had issues and now thing are stable but I want to
mirror the boot drive (c0t0d0) to the spare (c0t1d0).

I have read through the following document and tried to find good solid
examples but I tell what, I may go back to SVM (we also have Veritas but
we didn't purchase a license for this server). So I am familar with most of
the volume management solutions (A1000, software, etc) but this one is
just not making sense to me... what am I missing?

Document 88088 Enabling Hardware RAID on Sun Fire[TM] T1000/T2000

BTW.. I don't want to lose my current configuration, if possible.

Thanks in advance!!
