mirror configuration

kacou — Mon, 04 Aug 2008 10:14:21 GMT

I want to mirror a disk (146gb) on my hpux server (model:9000/800/rp3440 B111.23). when i execute my command i have this message below.
Is it normal or no? or someone can give me the procedure for hp9000 server mirror configuration.
-----------------------
#mkboot -l /dev/rdsk/c2t1d0
No device file found for EFI partition
Do you want to create a non-IA64 boot disk? (y/n)?

The rp3440 is a non-ia64 system (PA-RISC based HP9000).
Procedures are here (appendix):

Its a PA machine..you need to enter "n" i hope as EFI is IA related....
All other steps are in the pdf mentioned above as well.... do check if you are able to boot from mirrored disk once you are done... :)

EFI on an rp3440?

Thats a new one.

Use a PA-RISC procedure such as the one above.

While following the procedure step by step I have an error after this command â lvextendâ . However in the man pages all is exact.

You don't have the mirroring software installed.

You must purchase and install it first.

It's on the install/application CD set.

But remember, you need a key to enable it.

You should use the document that Torsten recommanded. The is for IA and PA-Risc.
