I'm having a problem cloning a 2.1 gb disk to a 9gb disk (boot device ) on
solaris 2.6
I've done the following:
1) run ufsdump of all the file systems onto another disk.
2)put in the new disk and boot -r
3)format, label and partition the disk w/ partitions larger than the
original.
4)mount the new disk partitions and restore using ufsrestore -rf, all of the
partitions.
5)run installboot on the new zero slice of the new disk.
6)fix up the vfstab on the new disk.
7)remove the old boot device and place the new one at scsi target 0.
8) reboot.
I get part way there and am told the /usr file system is damaged.
Questions:
1)do I need to boot from cd to do the original ufsdumps from a non-running
filesystem set?
2)what else might I have done wrong here?
thanks,
-chuck
