I always used to just unlock the handle of the disk on a Netra v240/Fire V440, let it spin down, and then pull out the disk, and put the new one in. Apparently you should always and always use 'cfgadm -c unconfigure' or things might go bad. (wait till the disk status led on the front turns blue). His theory was that the hardware is hotpluggable but the OS sometimes doesn't play nice with hotplug. Patrick ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

Depending on your storage HW, you have to still run some sort of SCSI quiesce equivalent on the device you plan to hot remove and hot plug. Contrary to the popular belief, hot plug does not work as advertised. At least it never did on Suns and on SGIs.

Yeah, I know exactly whats up. # uptime 6:37pm up 12 min(s), 2 users, load average: 0.01, 0.06, 0.09 # new disk .. new mirrors. The strange thing is, when I hot plugged the new disk in the whole machine went for a panic. Very annoying. Dennis ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

I've tried tracing and pinging it from my own machine and various online tools and it looks dead. Does anyone know what's up? Cheers Andrew. This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
