I don't now what is this 5 GB disk and what interface have, but based on SCSI (for example 40 MB/s) 5000 MB / 40 MB/s = 125 seconds
BTW don't count as diskspace only nonfree disk space, because my
idea to use dd commadn is
dd if=/dev/rdsk/..... of=/dev/rdsk/.....
i.e. make EXACT copy of disks (disks are equivalent)
(If someone see error, please correct me, I don't have Solaris machione at home :-((( )

But, how long does it take to backup/restore 5 GB disk for a blade 2000 box?
I want a quick way, maybe less than 20 minutes for backup/restoring.
Thank you for your advice.
Cheers

Hi ,everyone:
I am searching a software for instant restore of solaris system on system malfunctioning. no third party devices for storage except the build-in scsi disks.
