Example -- Renaming a Metadevice Used For a File System

# umount /home
# metarename d10 d100
d10: has been renamed to d100
(Edit the /etc/vfstab file so that the file system references the new metadevice)
# mount /home

The metadevice d10 is renamed to metadevice d100. Because d10 contains a mounted file system, the file system must be unmounted before the rename. If the metadevice is used for a file system with an entry in the /etc/vfstab file, the entry must be changed to reference the new metadevice name. For example, the following line:

/dev/md/dsk/d10 /dev/md/rdsk/d10 /docs ufs 2 yes -

should be changed to:

/dev/md/dsk/d100 /dev/md/rdsk/d100 /docs ufs 2 yes -

Lastly, the file system is remounted.
