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--erro
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.

Hello;
Disk is okay.
I know it should be online invalid.
For both T5120 systems, the problem is same.
I have many disk from san and two disks internal.
For the boot disk, for both system, it says error state.
Disks are okay physically.
There may be some point patch for SF 5.1RP2 for boot
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 c
Hello,
I am really aware of zfs and other features. Just test purpose I am trying to
do boot disk encapsulation. I think it is still supported on this system.

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 low
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 2048 consecutive sectors free.

Hi,
I come back with my dmp_fast_recovery issue (VxDMP fails the path before
MPxIO gets a chance to failover on alternate path).
As stated previously, I am running 5.0GA, and this tunable is not
supported in this release. However I still don't know if VxVM 5.0GA
silently bypasses the MPxIO st
Hello,
I am using vxdisk -e list to see the physical adress. There is no cinfusion at
this part. The disk is really disk that I would like to encapsulate . It is the
boot disk.

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,

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 m
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
