After checking the prerequisites ("Prerequisites for Maintaining DiskSuite Objects"), and the preliminary information ("Preliminary Information for Mirrors"), use the metadetach(1M) command to detach a submirror from a mirror. Refer to the metadetach(1M) man page for more information.
# metastat d5: mirror Submirror 0: d50 ... # metadetach d5 d50 d5: submirror d50 is detached |
In this example, mirror d5 has a submirror, d50, which is detached with the metadetach(1M) command. The underlying slices from d50 are going to be reused elsewhere. When you detach a submirror from a mirror, the system displays a confirmation message.
