Hello;
I have installed SP 5.1RP2 on solaris 10 system.
I am trying to encapsulate the boot disk and after that I will make
mirror.
In the vxdisk list,
It shows
DEVICE TYPEDISK GROUPSTATUS
disk_2 auto--
As you can see, disk_2 is showing in 'error' state.
But it should show as 'online invalid'.
There seems to be an error with the disk.
Check the status of the disk from OS/VxVM and SAN.

don't do it.
There is no longer, with a Solaris 10 system such as your 5120, a valid reason
to use VERITAS boot disk encapsulation.
Use ZFS. As I recall the 5120 has hardware mirroring so you could use that or
you could use ZFS mirroring. The advantage of hardware mirroring is that it
doesn't
By default, the upgrade changes the naming from osn ( os native ) to ebn
( enclosure based ). Additionally, disk_0 will not necessarily be
c0t0d0s2, it could be c0t1d0s2. Run the following command and see if
this clears up some of the confusion:
vxddladm set namingscheme=osn persistence=yes
yes it is still supported. Veritas has to support the same features on any
platform. that's part of the point of Veritas.
go right ahead and do your experiment. while you're at it you could dig out the
procedure for a more pure veritas disk.

Since your following the Symantec suggestions, they state the boot disk must
Ø Two free partitions.
Ø 2048 consecutive sectors free.
Ø Enclosure-based names (EBN) has not been implemented (pre 5.1).
Ø Partition 2 spans the whole device with no defined file system.
You've still got to deal
Yes,
But it is in error state. I will open a case to symantec support I think.

Hi Sebastien,
In the first mail you mentioned that you are using mpxio to control the XP24K
array. Why are you using mpxio here?
Thanks,
Venkata Sreenivasarao Nagineni,

MPxIO with VxVM is only supported with Sun storage. If you run into problems
with MPxIO and SF on XP24K then support will not be able to help you. I would
recommend using DMP with XP24K.

This is absolutely false!
MPxIO is an excellent multipathing solution and is supported by all
major storage vendors including HP. This issue discussed in this
thread has to do with improper behavior of DMP when multipathing is
managed by a native layer like MPxIO.
Storage and OS vendors have no
We support several 3rd party multipathing solutions, like MPxIO or EMCs
PowerPath.
However, MPxIO is only supported on Sun branded Storages.
DMP has also been known to outperform other solutions in certain configurations.
When a 3rd party multipathing is in use, DMP will fail back into TPD mode
