Re: wipe out the data
Start with all the non-vg00 disks (you can umount the filesystems if you like):
DISKS="/dev/rdsk/c5t1d0 /dev/rdsk/c6t4d0"
for DISK in ${DISKS}
do
dd if=/dev/zero bs=256k of=${DISK}
done
then repeat for the disk(s) that make up vg00.

Re: wipe out the data
Hi,
there is a command
#mediainit
use this on ALL the disks which was part of the VG.
This is like LOW LEVEL formatting.
Regards,
Siva.
