Hi all, especially Jim. :-) Still having problems, this time with SNDR itself.
I gave up on my plan to use fdisk partitions as data and bitmap volumes for SNDR (AVS Remote Mirror), since sndradm doesn't seem to want to recognize them. (Unlike ZFS's zpool.) Right now I'm testing with two virtual machines in Parallels Desktop on my Mac Pro. I installed Solaris Express snv_55b and AVS, then duplicated the virtual machine and changed hostname, IP address and MAC address. I can ssh back and forth fine between my Mac and the virtual machines, and from one virtual machine to the other (using the hostnames, which are entered in /etc/hosts), so network connectivity seems to be OK. I can enable Remote Mirror with the following command on both "master" and "slave" by using the following command: bash-3.00# sndradm -E master /dev/rdsk/c0d0s4 /dev/rdsk/c0d0s3 slave /dev/rdsk/c0d0s4 /dev/rdsk/c0d0s3 ip async Then, dsstat will report an active volume on both master and slave: bash-3.00# dsstat name t s pct role ckps dkps tps svt dev/rdsk/c0d0s4 S L 0.00 net - 0 0 0 dev/rdsk/c0d0s3 bmp 0 0 0 0 (That's on the slave. The output is the same on the master, except of course t=P for c0d0s4.) However, when I try to start the update, I get an error: bash-3.00# sndradm -u Refresh secondary with primary? (Y/N) [N]: y bash-3.00# Remote Mirror: master /dev/rdsk/c0d0s4 /dev/rdsk/c0d0s3 slave /dev/rdsk/c0d0s4 /dev/rdsk/c0d0s3 sndradm: warning: SNDR: Could not open file slave:/dev/rdsk/c0d0s4 on remote node The (virtual) hard drives are set up identically on both the master and slave virtual machines, with a single fdisk partition containing the following slices: Current partition table (original): Total disk cylinders available: 4076 + 2 (reserved cylinders) Part Tag Flag Cylinders Size Blocks 0 root wm 651 - 2180 11.72GB (1530/0/0) 24579450 1 swap wu 3 - 68 517.72MB (66/0/0) 1060290 2 backup wm 0 - 4075 31.22GB (4076/0/0) 65480940 3 reserved wm 69 - 77 70.60MB (9/0/0) 144585 4 reserved wm 2181 - 4075 14.52GB (1895/0/0) 30443175 5 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 6 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 7 home wm 78 - 650 4.39GB (573/0/0) 9205245 8 boot wu 0 - 0 7.84MB (1/0/0) 16065 9 alternates wu 1 - 2 15.69MB (2/0/0) 32130 I have no problem creating a zpool and filesystem on c0d0s4 on either master or slave. However, sndradm fails to access the data volume on the slave as show above. Or is this a network connectivity or hostname issue? But ssh (e. g., "ssh master" from slave) works fine both ways! Any ideas? I'm stumped - thanks for your help!
