No, you are not quite getting it. let's say your root drives were design like this d0 main mirror for / d10 - submirror c0t0d0 d20 - submirror c0t1d0 you would detach d20 from d0. leaving you with a single sided mirror that is made up of d10 attached to d0. using d20 you would use this disk...

by the way, what I wrote is an example using c1t0d0, you may have a reason not to use that disk. again it is an example from what you posted.

I guess the best thing is to get back to your issue. I had the same problem as you with a system I inherited from another group that we took over their server support. Fortunately for me it was /var that needed to be grown, so I just used growfs. Unfortunate for you /usr is one of only a few...

no that is not correct. Read the man on growfs. I have been growing partitions within SVN for years. Not soft partitions, I do not use then.

if you were wanting to grow it on the fly using growfs. you can not do it. /usr is one of the filesystems you can not grow. do a man on growfs

you might want to explain more about what performance issues you are having if you expect to possibly get help.

what Sun part number are they? 2 CPU's per board? Are you sure you have the dimms on the correct place. depending on the memory configuration they need to be in specific places on the CPU board

Thanks for the links!!

Does anyone know where you can find on the internet a good collection select statements. Thanks

Hi question on vmwaretools for suse10 and suse11 linux, how do I know if I need the i586 or x86_64 version. We are using Sun x4500, x4100 and dell's.

There is going to be an ability to ssh to ESXi hosts. Interview at vmworld that is going on right now. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Tktk6iIjmI

So whats your question? depending if you are working on sparc or x86 running Solaris you will get different responses. On sparc, an init 0 will take you to the OBP prompt. I'm guessing the shutdown -i0 will also. I never use the shutdown command. I use the init commands so it will cleanly...

you can just install that patch at anytime. download it from Sun and install it. I installed it using: smpatch

Your request does not make any sense. 142901-12 is a kernel patch, pretty recent in fact. 119255-73 is a "install and patch utility" patch. They are not the same. why do you need to remove the latest kernel patch?

Arrays are sometimes different, you may need to supply special information/configurations to get mpxio working. the only time this is probably not true is on sun arrays, they are configured to work already in solaris
