hp ux 11iv1 mirroring disk on rp 4440

bitou — Wed, 23 Mar 2011 08:08:37 GMT

hi, i need yr help to solve my issue.
when i try to mirror the disk, the server doesn't boot from the primary path but it boot from the second disk>
my steps:

Mirror Root disk procedure

# pvcreate -Bf /dev/rdsk/c3t15d0
# vgextend /dev/vg00 /dev/dsk/c3t15d0
# mkboot /dev/rdsk/c3t15d0
# mkboot -a "hpux -lq (0/0/2/1.15.0;0)/stand/vmunix" /dev/rdsk/c3t15d0 (0/2/1.15 from ioscan –fnkC disk)
# lvlnboot –v
# for LVOL in /dev/vg00/lv*
> do
> echo $LVOL
> lvextend -m 1 $LVOL /dev/dsk/c3t15d0
> done
# lvlnboot –v
# setboot –a 0/0/2/1.15.0
# setboot –s on

i have done this procedure in 3 servers and i have received the same error, any help please

I would do some things different:

3) # mkboot -l /dev/rdsk/c3t15d0
4) # mkboot -a "hpux -lq" /dev/rdsk/c3t15d0

This is an external disk, but where is the primary?

What is the exact message when booting from the primary? Where it stops?

but the 2 disks are internal disk.
and the mirror is done locally.

You say you took this from ioscan:

0/2/1.15.0

This points to a disk connected to a HBA in slot 7, SCSI ID of 15.

Internal disks start with 0/1/1/... and have SCSI ID of 0 or 1.

Please post an "ioscan -fn".

the 2 disks have the following path:
0/1/0/0.0.0
and 0/1/0/0.1.0
