Sun Cluster 3.0 Installation Guide

Example--Mirroring the Global Namespace

The following example shows creation of mirror d101, which consists of submirror d111 on partition c0t0d0s3 and submirror d121 on partition c2t2d0s3. The /etc/vfstab file entry for /global/.devices/node@1 is updated to use the mirror name d101. Disk c2t2d0 is a multiported disk, so the localonly property is enabled.


(Create the mirror:)
# metainit -f d111 1 1 c0t0d0s3
d111: Concat/Stripe is setup
# metainit -f d121 1 1 c2t2d0s3
d121: Concat/Stripe is setup
# metainit d101 -m d111
d101: Mirror is setup
# metattach d101 d121
d101: Submirror d121 is attached
 
(Edit the /etc/vfstab file:)
# vi /etc/vfstab
#device        device          mount           FS      fsck    mount   mount
#to mount      to fsck         point           type    pass    at boot options
#
/dev/md/dsk/d101 /dev/md/rdsk/d101 /global/.devices/node@1 ufs 2 no global
 
(View the sync status:)
# metastat d101
d101: Mirror
      Submirror 0: d111
         State: Okay
      Submirror 1: d121
         State: Resyncing
      Resync in progress: 15 % done

(Identify the DID name of the mirrored disk's raw disk device group:)
# scdidadm -L
...
1         phys-schost-3:/dev/rdsk/c2t2d0     /dev/did/rdsk/d2
 
(Enable the localonly property of the mirrored disk's raw disk device group:)
# scconf -c -D name=dsk/d2,localonly=true
