Solaris 10 10/08 Release Notes

Device ID Discrepancies After Upgrading From Solaris 9 9/04 OS

In this Solaris 10 release, Solaris Volume Manager displays device ID output in a new format. Solaris 9 9/04 OS, which introduced device ID support in disk sets, does not recognize the new format. When you upgrade to Solaris 10 OS from the Solaris 9 9/04 release, device IDs that are associated with existing disk sets are not updated in the Solaris Volume Manager configuration. If you need to revert to Solaris 9 9/04 OS, configuration changes made to disk sets after the upgrade might not be available to Solaris 9 9/04 OS. For more information, see Chapter 25, Troubleshooting Solaris Volume Manager (Tasks), in Solaris Volume Manager Administration Guide.
