SolutionYou don't need it however to have a second bootable disk i.e. a 'point in time' clone of your boot disk which could be used for recovery purposes.

Re: Software required to mirror boot disks
John's post is correct and makes a good point -- you can still clone a disk for recovery purposes without Mirror disk. HOWEVER, I think the value of the Mirror Disk/UX far outweights its cost. You can use it on any volume group besides the root one, increasing its value to you.

Re: Software required to mirror boot disks
To make a mirror of your root disk you can do the methods above (MirrorUX, ignite)
OR you can simply make a dd copy of your system disk to another disk.
However, the only way to keep your mirror copy continuously up-to-date is to use MirrorUX. If you use ignite or dd you will need to make copies frequently in order to keep them up-to-date.

Re: Software required to mirror boot disks
You must have mirror disk UX on your system before creating mirror copy of your bootable hard drive. But it is only useful when your hard drive goes down due to hardware fault, if your bootable disk goes down due to some software curruption this mirror copy is useless because every thing update on the mirror copy on the same time. If you want to know the method of creating the mirror copy of bootable, Pls let me know.
