Mirroring back hot swapped internal disks

[KPS]

Sorry for the previous blank post...

I have an internal /root disk that I have to hot swap. The disk is internal and mirrored on an L-Class. Once I'm done replacing, i'm wondering if anyone can tell me if the following approach would be sufficient:

vgcfgrestore -v /dev/vg00 /dev/rdsk/c1t0d0
vgchange -a y /dev/vg00
vgsync /dev/vg00

Hi,

Here is a link to a thread where the real experts discuss the steps for replacing and re-mirroring a root disk:

You say this is a /root disk. The real question: Is the a BOOT disk. If so, then you really need to add the steps to make this a bootable disk to your list.

Check out this thread for some good information on how to do this.

This document describes mirroring both root disks and non root disks after hot swap .
