Hi Ned,

The p* devices represent the fdisk partition.

The disk naming is very confusing so let's summarize:

c*t*d*p* - represents the larger fdisk partition. Do no use these
for your storage pools.

c*t*d* - represents the whole disk. Use these for your pools
except when creating a root pool for booting. Do not use s2, a
slice that represented the whole disk on the VTOC label for
anything.

c*t*d*s* - represents a disk slice. Only use this for a
root pool.

Thanks,

Cindy

The d0 device node is completely irrelevant to that.

To replicate the disk, you need to use fdisk to copy the partition
table. That uses
the ...p0 device. Assuming identical drives it should be:

Yes, that seems to have worked, thank you!  :-)
...
So ... Is the p0 device synonymous with the d0 device?
