To break mirror in place (Assuming encapsulated) Assuming valid bootable mirror exist: Detach all plexes on disk Mount root slice of brokenoff as e.g. /mnt and edit /mnt/vfstab to change back to orign al form such as c0t0d0s0 as / also comment out veritas entries in /mnt/etc/system and disable init script for veritas in mnt/etc/rc2.d

If you break the mirror, you'll have a dickens of a time booting from it if your patching goes awry. If you leave the mirror alone and pull it (simulating a failure), booting from the pulled spare is trivial (just remove the other one) It's possible to do it with breaking the mirror in software, but quite tricky and time consuming. _______________________________________________ Veritas-vx maillist - Veritas-vx@mailman.eng.auburn.edu http://mailman.eng.auburn.edu/mailman/listinfo/veritas-vx -------------------------- Sent from my BlackBerry Wireless Device
