Re: Mirroring itanium boot drive
You very well may have a Smart Array controller and hence a hardware RAID mirror.
You might want to see what is returned by:
# ioscan -kfnC disk
# sasmgr get_info -D /dev/sasd0 -q raid
An invaluable document, otherwise is this (which also discusses the differences between mirroring vg00 on PA-RISC and Itanium:

SolutionI use a small script and it helps to mirror the root disk quickly,
You can try this small program, (mirror.v3_hp-ux_11.31 ) , cereful while specifying the source and target,
Inside you have to change Target (the new disk to be mirrored), and Source (The existing boot disk).
#---------------------
TARGET_DSK="diskXX"
SOURCE_DSK="diskYY"

Cheers,
Raj.

Re: Mirroring itanium boot drive
Posting a PDF file that was stored off 3-years ago when a current version is freely available on the HP web makes little sense to me.
