Maximize data availability |
Use Solaris Volume Manager's mirroring feature to maintain multiple copies of your data. You can create a RAID 1 volume from unused slices in preparation for data, or you can mirror an existing file system, including root (/) and /usr. | |
Add data availability with minimum hardware cost |
Increase data availability with minimum of hardware by using Solaris Volume Manager's RAID 5 volumes. | |
Increase data availability for an existing RAID 1 or RAID 5 volume |
Increase data availability for a RAID 1 or a RAID 5 volume, by creating a hot spare pool then associate it with a mirror's submirrors, or a RAID 5 volume. | |
Increase file system availability after reboot |
Increase overall file system availability after reboot, by adding UFS logging (transactional volume) to the system. Logging a file system reduces the amount of time that the fsck command has to run when the system reboots. |
