hi,
its probably me , but i don't understand what youwant to do
i.e. do you
1. want to restore your mksysb onto the mirrored copy disk
if that is the case , was your mksysb created when you had your disks mirrored i.e hdisk0 to hdisk1 if so you'll have to do some editing before you do the restore to hdisk1 only
because your mksysb will show hdisk0 mirrored to hdisk1 and
will error when only restoring to hdisk1.
OR
2. Do you want to restore a mksysb where you have 2 disks
hdisk0 and hdisk1 , if that is the case do what levw
if you have access to the Os you can change bootlist to rmt0
i.e. bootlist -m normal rmt0 cd0
or as levw has mentioned
HTH
