I find myself in the position of needing to migrate from a Sun MultiPack to a S1 as the boot device, and I think I've got it covered, but figured I'd run my scenario past the mass experience of this group.
Here's my plan:
current pertinent eeprom settings:
boot-device=disk6
nvramrc=devalias disk6 /sbus@3,0/SUNW,fas@3,8800000/sd@1,0
devalias vx-rootdisk2 /sbus@3,0/SUNW,fas@3,8800000/sd@2,0:a
devalias vx-rootdisk /sbus@3,0/SUNW,fas@3,8800000/sd@1,0:a
new disk devices (on S1):
c3t0d0s0 --> sbus@b,0/SUNW,fas@3,8800000/sd@0,0:a
c3t1d0s0 --> sbus@b,0/SUNW,fas@3,8800000/sd@1,0:a
c3t2d0s0 --> sbus@b,0/SUNW,fas@3,8800000/sd@2,0:a
the plan is to mirror the exisiting rootdisk and rootdisk2 to the first two devices in the S1 (c3t0 and c3t1)
change the eeprom settings to:
boot-device=disk1
nvramrc=devalias disk1 sbus@b,0/SUNW,fas@3,8800000/sd@0,0:a
devalias vx-rootdisk2 sbus@b,0/SUNW,fas@3,8800000/sd@1,0:a
devalias vx-rootdisk sbus@b,0/SUNW,fas@3,8800000/sd@0,0:a
Then detach the original disks from the mirror........
SEEMS like it should just be that simple... course I've often been wrong about these things, so I thought I'd look for a little advice from folks who may have done something like this before....
Thanks!
