Sorry for stealing this thread... Had a question in relation to the OP... If you want to image the server onto another server where the source server is using a rpool mirror and you want the destination server to also use an rpool mirror, could you still use dd?

I want to make sure what char device should I use, per format command:

Searching for disks...done


AVAILABLE DISK SELECTIONS:
      0. c8t0d0 <DEFAULT cyl 60798 alt 2 hd 255 sec 63>
         /p...@0,0/pci108e,5...@1f,2/d...@0,0
      1. c8t1d0 <DEFAULT cyl 60799 alt 2 hd 255 sec 63>
         /p...@0,0/pci108e,5...@1f,2/d...@1,0

I guess disk number 1 is the new one witch is "empty" and will be the target, but witch of these two next devices should I use:

source: /dev/rdsk/c8t0d0p0     target: /dev/rdsk/c8t1d0p0

- OR -

source: /dev/rdsk/c8t0d0s0     target: /dev/rdsk/c8t1d0s0

"p" or "s", by partition or by slice???

Thanks in advace.
