I have an E3500 with mirrored OS disks running Solaris 8, and one of the
disks (c0t0d0) has failed. I would like to replace the disk on-line, and my
plan is as follows:

1) replace drive
2) devfsadm -c disk
3) partition new drive
4) recreate mirrors
5) run installboot on new drive
6) change boot device with eeprom (I believe the FC-AL WWN is part of the
boot path)

I have limited experience with FC-AL drives, and I would like to know if I
have missed anything, or if there are any differences between FC-AL and
SCSI that I should watch out for.

Thanks,
Thomas Carter
