JumpStart and SVM mirroring error.

Hi,
In essence, I am trying to mirror a number of slices on the rootdisk and rootmirror. Most cases I have tried work, except when I try and mirror
c0t1d0s6 to c0t0d0s7 or c0t0d0s6 to c0t1d0s7. I can succesfully do c0t0d0s7 to c0t1d0s7 and c0t1d0s7 to c0t1d0s7.
(obviously this may not be best practice, but I don't see any reason I shouldnt be able to do it)
The error below appears spurious as the disk layout is actually identical, even though the error message indicates they are not.
Here is the disk part of the profile causing the issues.

  • Fdisk, jumpstart, and x86boot

    When I do an Interactive install of Solaris 8 from CD, I end up with a working system, but when I do my jumpstart install with no fdisk commands in the install profile, I end up with a system that says "bad PBR sig" upon rebooting.
    I added fdisk commands to the profile to create the x86boot and Solaris partitions, and the install did in fact create the partitions, however it still came up with the "bad PBR sig" error after the install. So my question is: What am I doing wrong in the profile?
    Does anybody have a working profile that will take a system on which you do not want to preserve any existing data, install an x86boot partition and a Solaris partition, and end up with a system that boots to Solaris successfully?
    (The documentation about the fdisk keywords in the profile that I found on docs.sun.com don't seem to be helping me on this issue.)
    Hopefully,

ZFS integrates its own volume management and you can easily construct stripe, mirrored, raidz (raid5), raidz2 (=raid 6) zpool.
    For exemple to add a disk mirror to your rpool pool, you just have to do a "zpool add rpool c0t0d0s0 c0t1d0s0"
    A "man zpool" should give you more information.

    ThanksFrom your client, you have to boot from the network "boot - net" but before you will have to create a new profile in your jumpstart server, but I could not say you in details how to do this. Surely you might be able to find lot of information in docs.sun.com about this or perhaps somebody else could give more information.

  • Can not activate EAX and SVM Support in Media Source Organizer with Audigy2 !!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Please there must be somebody out there able to me!Ive got an Audigy2 SB0240 (driver: SBAX_WBUP2_LB_2_09_006.exe)? and Media Source (CMS_PCAPP_LB_3_30_2.exe) Windows XP Pro SP2So after the CORRECT Installation and?Updates to the actuall securely workable Versions by Creative Auto Update the Media Source Player/Organizerit is not able to let me use EAX or SVM. The well known error message: "there is no audio device detected" appears after pressing Ctrl E.Each process of is own (Soundcard and all the Creative Softwarestuff) is working absolutely correct so far. Ive tryed driver cleansweeping, deinstalltion of all Creative stuff, even by Driver Cleaner Pro, Ived pulled the Soundcard out of the system during?deinstalltion and tryed any driver version (from CD and Internet)and Installation description procedures which I could find here at the forum, during the whole last days!?But there is no way. Is there someone, who knows what to do? I would be very happy if?it works. Thanks for your attention and help.

    TheDarkSide,
    Actually what is happening is that MediaSource does not support the Audigy card. The EAX and SVM buttons require the EAX console and capabilities of the Audigy 2 or cards that were designed for MediaSource. The way that EAX was handled and implemented was changed between the Audigy and Audigy 2 and this is why MediaSource doesn't support the EAX capabilities of the Audigy directly. You can still modify the EAX settings from within EAX console for the Audigy but it isn't integrated into MediaSource like it is with Playcenter.

  • SQL Server Mirroring Error 1418

    Hi,
    I am currently setting up an SQL Server Mirror with only two Servers running SQL Server 2008 R2 Standard edition
    My setup is using only a Principal and a Mirror with no Witness.
    Port being used is 5022 on both servers. I am able to telnet the servers both ways
    Only thing I noticed is that the endpoint name is different on each server.
    I am able to complete the configuration using the wizard without any issue.
    I however when starting the Mirror, I get the attached error message
    Thanks

  • Poor performance with SVM mirrored stripes

    Problem: poor write performance with configuration included below. Before attaching striped subdevices to mirror, they write/read very fast (>20,000 kw/s according to iostat), but after mirror attachment and sync performance is <2,000 kw/s. I've got standard SVM-mirrored root disks that perform at > 20,000 kw/s, so something seems odd. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Config follows:

    I have the same issue and it is killing our iCal Server performance.
    My question would be, can you edit an XSAN Volume without destroying the data?
    There is one setting that I think might ease the pressure... in the Cache Settings (Volumes -> <Right-Click Volume> -> Edit Volume Settings)
    Would increasing the amount of Cache help? Would it destroy the data?!?!?

  • Constant disconnect/reconnect and tons of errors.

    Ijust got a brand new iphone 4, and just installed newest itunes fresh a couple of days ago.
    The computer is running windows xp pro, and was just recently reinstalled about a month ago.
    When I plug my iphone into the computer it will start to sync and then stop an give me an error either about "error reading device, iphone not connected," or an error with a hex code, or all of the above and others.
    Heres what happens
    I plug the phone in, the battery icon changes to a plug, then the lightning bolt, then back to normal, the phone tells me charging is not supported with this accessory, and sync in progress.
    Windows pops up the autorun menu and asks me what I want to do with the connected camera, open it in word, or scanners and cameras.
    Itunes also opens and starts the sync process, it shows syncing on the iphone.
    then after backing up and copying some apps, the iphone goes back to the home screen as if it was unplugged, the sync stops and gives me errors.
    I'm getting extremely frustrated with this too. If I leave it plugged in I constantly keep hearing the whistle noise the phone makes when it's plugged in, and windows wont shut up with the usb device plugged in/unplugged sound.
    It will just keep disconnecting, trying to sync, failing and doing it all over again until I unplug it.
    I've restarted the phone, restarted the computer and it still does this.
    Do I have to unplug all of my other usb devices? it totally gets confused if I have a flash drive or another phone (my ROKR E8 or RAZR) plugged into the computer.

    Sorry to tell you this but the iPhone is not a storage or backup device! Occasionally it will have problems, an app may be corrupted and cause problems! Because of this you will need to do one of the three (restart, reset, restore). You really need to backup everything on phone somewhere on your computer or a backup drive! Old phones stored contacts on the Sim... the iPhone doesn't... If you rely completely on your iPhone backup you may be sorry because that can get corrupted also!!
    Again sorry to tell you this but having an iPhone when you dislike iTunes and refuse to backup (besides iPhone backup) is a bad decision... Not backing up is a bad decision with any smart phone!!! They're no longer plain old phones!!!
