o/p of " lvlnboot -v"
Boot Definitions for Volume Group /dev/vg00:
Physical Volumes belonging in Root Volume Group:
/dev/disk/disk7_p2 -- Boot Disk
/dev/disk/disk9_p2 -- Boot Disk
Boot: lvol1 on: /dev/disk/disk7_p2

Root: lvol3 on: /dev/disk/disk7_p2
/dev/disk/disk9_p2
Swap: lvol2 on: /dev/disk/disk7_p2

Dump: lvol2 on: /dev/disk/disk7_p2, 0



with above i know boot disk are :
/dev/disk/disk7_p2 AND /dev/disk/disk9_p2

but my doubt is why its showing in setboot as
Primary bootpath : 4/0/1/1/0.0x0.0x0 (/dev/rdisk/disk12)
HA Alternate bootpath :
Alternate bootpath : 4/0/8/1/0.0x0.0x0 (/dev/rdisk/disk15)

that means

/dev/rdisk/disk12 AND /dev/rdisk/disk15

pls clear

Thanks & regards
