Are all of the persistent DSF's set up for this system?

What is the output of:

# ioscan -m dsf

Does it show the /dev/disk/disk? devices?

[Torsten.]

If you are using 11.31 you should always use the new agile device files when configuring LVM etc ... (e.g. /dev/disk/disk5 instead of /dev/dsk/c0t1d0).

[Ralf Seefeldt]

Besides the topics about the devicefiles, you have to make sure, that no ignite make*recovery is running or is being started while you create your DRD disk. Otherwise DRD will fail.
