Yes. Either through Software (LSM), or HArdware (HSx controller? EVA? KZPSC?)

Note: LSM features such as mirroring and striping require a separate software license

I'm sure there is, but if you use hardware mirroring (which IMHO is the easiest), we woudl need to knwo which storage hardware you intend to use. Not much documentation needed though for hardware. Just select 'raid-1' as you create virtual storage, or 'add mirror' and so on.

For the Software solution, checkthe LSM doc, and the Tru64 Installation guide.
"Configuring the Logical Storage Manager (LSM)"

good luck,

I'm not sure if KZPSC is supported for DS20E, please check with your HW-provider, if beeing considered.
