Why parition table is different between S10 3/05 and S10 6/06?

I want to set up RAID 1 (mirroring) using the Solaris Volume Manager (SVM) on my Solaris 10 6/06 x86 machine. I have 2 identical Seagate 40GB HDD's (model ST340016A).
The partition table on the primary disk was already defined by Solaris 10 3/05 OS before I reinstalled the OS (Solaris 10 6/06). The partition table of the primary disk is as follows:
leopard $ prtvtoc /dev/rdsk/c0d0s2
* /dev/rdsk/c0d0s2 partition map
* Dimensions:
* 512 bytes/sector
* 63 sectors/track

It has 38771 cyclinders.
Now I want to create exactly the same partition table on the secondary disk, but it refuses to match the same partition table to the primary disk. It stills gives 40GB, but the number of cycliners is not the same. Below is the partition table of the secondary disk.

It has 4864 cyclinders not 38771. Why?
You can see the disk dimension is different between these 2 disks. I tried to redefine it to match the primary disk, but it keeps coming back to the different table.
Do you know why the partition table defined by Solaris 10 6/06 differs to what Solaris 10 3/05 had defined? How do I force the parition table to match with the primary disk? Both disks must match so that SVM would work.
Can anyone shed any light as to why it happens? Thank you for your help.

  • Exchange rate is different between records in OB08 and records in document.

    Hi Gurus,
    The exchange rate is different between records in OB08 and records in calculated amount in line item. How does it happen? Not all of the documents in the same period has this problem.
    For example, a document A created by FB05 on Jun 30 2010.
    In OB08, the exchange rate is 6.80000. This rate was the same in the header of document A.
    In the line item of doc A, I calculated the amount for line itme 1 and 2. Line itme 1 shows the exchange rate is 7.90000. Line item 2 shows the exchange rate is 16.0000. ( The exchange rate is not that exactly an interger. I put a similar exchange rate as an example.)
    Could you please throw some light on these? Why some documents are okay but for some, the exchange rate is so different?
    I just found that the exchange rate of some of the document line item calculated is from another currency. It shows in the line item (in question) button "More Data". Shall I know how the exchange rate was got from another currency exchange rate?
    Thank you.

  • Is any different between ECC 5.0 and ECC 6.0 for Excel export?

    Dear all,
    As you know, most standard SAP report allow Excel export. I just wonder is any different between ECC 5.0 and ECC 6.0 for excel report in standard SAP reports?
    In ECC 5.0, Reports in profit center accounting, LIS, or PA, etc. has their own different way to export to excel and is any improvement in ECC 6.0? I Thanks.

    In ECC 5.0, a lot of reports don't have Excel export function instead user has to go to system -> List -> Save -> Local file -> spreadsheet.
    I just wonder is any improvement in ECC 6.0? just like LIS report, user can select export -> Transfer XXL to either pivot table or just plain excel but the function only exist in certain reports in some modules and not all.
    Thanks again.

  • What is the different between payment methods Wire and EFT

    Hi All
    can anybody tell me What is the different between payment methods Wire and EFT ?
    Regards ;

    WIRE:
    Wire is transfer of amount due directly to the supplier's bank it is an electronic transfer of funds
    This mode of payment is used for international suppliers.
    It can be paid in foreign currency or USD.
    Wire payments are same day payments.
    EFT:
    EFT ensures funds transfer from one bank account to another using electronic links.
    Can be used to make payments into domestic banks (within US) in USD only.
    It is faster than check payments.
    Hope this helps.

  • Different Between KT4V ver1.0 and KT4V v10A

    Hi guys, when i just bought a new MSI KT4V from a shop, it was version 1.0, but 3 month later i send for warrantty claim, they return the board to me (I think they  replace the board, but i dun think it was a new board, it was a used board), but it was KT4V Ver10A, i bought this board at Malaysia, do anybody know about it ?? Can let me know what is the different between Version 1.0 and 10A ????  ?(
    In my mind, i think maybe is KT4V Ver 2.0  :D
    I got send mail to MSI official site, but sadly it auto reply by the machine, do anybody know how to send a mail to technical support which will reply and give a solution for you problem ???

    The cpu temp looks to be slightly high for an idle temp.  Could be caused by too much thermal grease or poor airflow through the case, even by high ambient temps in the room where the system is located.  These temps are normally measured in centigrade and should not exceed 43 degrees to 45 degrees at idle.  Yours appear to be about 50 degrees.

  • Different between cisco NAC agent and cisco Clean Access Agent

    Hi all,
    if anyone has idea about different between cisco NAC agent and cisco Clean Access Agent, please share your ideas.
    thank you

    In 4.6, the agent was overhauled and is now called the NAC agent.  Previous versions were referred to as the Clean Access Agent.  So pretty much, the 4.5 agent and 4.1.3.2 agents are Clean Access agents, and the 4.6.x and 4.7.x agents are called NAC agents.
    Some of the changes made were moving a lot of the agent configuration to an XML file, redesigning the GUI, adding a service portion (so that the stub agent is no longer required), and better agent logging.

    Hi Elad,
       Depending on the requirement and the availability we go with implementing a particular database.
    For xi point of view there is no difference between oracle and SQL database. However you need to intall the drivers of SQL.
    Even there is no difference in the communication channel configuration.
    Reward points if found helpful.

    No, there isn't. There isn't a difference in the OS either; if they shipped with different OS versions, it's because of the passage of time and not them being from different countries.

  • Different between Independent Multiple Sample, and Dependent

    Hi Craig and QM gurus,
    What is the different between Independent Multiple Sample, and Dependent Multiple Sample?
    I read the SAP library and am still confusing.
    thanks

    hi
    In very simple terms...
    In case when you are using a sampling scheme .....You will find the acceptence Number & rejection Number(C1 &D1)
    When after sampling & maintaining C1 & D1 still you can not reach to a conclustion then you can also maintain next level C2 & D2
    Dependent multiple samepling : C2 & d2 are depend upon C1 & D1.
    Ex:
    C1: 1   & D1:3
    you have found 2 sample rejecet..you can not reach to conclution then maintain C2 & D2 for next level of sampling.
    Independent:when first level is not depend upon second level.
    I hope this is clear.
    Regards

  • Partition Table Looks Different Between OSX and Windows 7

    Hey all,
    I recently replaced the hard drive on my 2007 iMac, going from the 320GB drive to a 1 TB drive. It actually worked! The previous drive was failing in very odd ways, though booting into the Windows side (more on dual boot later) always seemed to work, and S.M.A.R.T. always reported that the physical drive seemed OK.
    The previous drive (320 GB) had around 200GB devoted to OSX and 100GB partitioned off for a working Windows 7 installation (custom installed x64 Win7 Ultimate). I had the Windows system image backed up to my NAS, and had a Windows system bootable disc to restore that image.
    After replacing the drive (and almost crying that I had actually done it right), I first restored OSX from a Time Machine backup, and let it take the full 1TB of space as Journalled HFS+. Then, I used Disk Utility to shrink OSX down to 500GB, and created a second partition (formatted to NTFS) with the remaining 500GB.
    Now, restoring a Windows system image is an odd thing, as it tries to do a lot of partition work as opposed to simply restoring the Windows install to a partition. I tried Macrium Reflect first (made a backup in that, too), and it looked like it was going to let me restore to the second partition. It completed the restore...and the entire hard drive was hosed. Partitions had been moved, renamed, resized, and nothing was bootable. I had to use Recovery from an external USB thumb drive to go back to the single, full-drive install of OSX.
    Then I tried again. Made the second NTFS partition and used the basic Windows System Restore disk to restore from the standard system image I had on the NAS. I was not expecting this to work. But it did. Windows started showing up in Startup Manager when "option" was pressed on bootup, and both OSX and Windows booted properly and ran fine. This is where I (finally) get to the supreme oddities:
    OSX Disk Utility still reports two 500GB partitions, one for OSX and one for Windows.
    In OSX the Windows partition shows as having NO DATA on it. Not sure what would happen if I tried to write a file to it when mounted, but there is no data on it when viewed from OSX (I was always able to see the Windows files when I mounted that partition on the previous drive).
    The Windows partition does not show up as a valid bootable system in System Prefs --> Startup Disk (naturally, I suppose, since OSX doesn't think there is anything there).
    From the WINDOWS side, Windows still sees the old partition table: 200GB for the "unknown" HFS partition, and then the rest of the space can be devoted to Windows (started as 100GB, but I was ablt to expand it to use the remaining ~750GB!).  Windows thinks it can have 750GB of space even though I know its partition is only 500GB in size!
    Windows cannot see the OSX HFS partition data using HFSExplorer. It CAN see the HFS partition on the attached backup drive (the drive I use for Time Machine).
    GParted (a partition program on a Linux bootabld CD-ROM) shows the same partitions as OSX Disk Utility (2x500GB), and also thinks the Windows NTFS partition is empty (all space reports as "unused").
    Did I mention both OSX and Windows work fine???
    There are, of course, two other partitions on the drive: the first partition is the 200MB one I always see (EFI/GUID portion?), and then between the HFS and NTFS partitions is the 600MB recovery partition (which also shows at option-pressed boot time). OSX, GParted, and Windows see all four partitions, and in the same order. It is just that Windows sees the wrong sizes, and OSX cannot see any data in the Windows partition.
    Surely this is all going to break spectacularly at some point, isn't it? What if I ever did write a file to the Windows side from OSX, or what if OSX starts taking more space than the 200GB Windows thinks is the max for that partition? What if I try to make Windows use more than 500GB because it thinks it has almost 800GB to use? What if I defrag the Windows drive?
    I had no idea a partition table could look this goofy and yet still have everything be bootable and workable. Is there something I can do to get everything in sync? Basically, I am assuming I need to get Windows to do some low-level kung fu in Disk Manager in order to properly get everything lined up with the "right" partitions as reported by both GParted and OSX Disk Utility. But how do I do that?
    By the way, any ideas that totally nuke the drive and start from scratch are completely fine (if it seems like they are doing something different enough that I'd give it a try). I have good backups of both OSX and Windows and have restored them about a half dozen times already as I dealt with the previous failing hard drive and with trying to get dual-boot working again. Not to mention, this iMac is now my secondary machine to the new Mac Mini I got a couple weeks back when I wasn't sure how much more life I was going to get from this 6+ year old iMac.
    Thanks for listening to me ramble about this very odd issue, and a huge THANK YOU in advance to anyone who has ideas to help.
    Thanks,

    Update:
    I am pretty sure the issue is a simple GPT/MBR discrepancy.
    I installed rEFIt and used it's partitioning tool (gptsync built in) upon bootup. It was able to show the GPT table and the MBR table, but it thinks the second partition of the drive (the Mac OSX bootable partition) is "extended" in the MBR table and says "will not touch this disk."
    However, it does look like an MBR sync should be straightforward, as there four partitions in the GPT table and four in the MBR (and MBR allows a max of four, AFAIK). I just need gptsync to relax some rules. I found a link to a supposedly newer version of gptsync compiled for OSX, so I will try that later.
    First, I will try Partition Wizard, a free tool I found for the Windows side. It has a "Repair MBR" option that I would have tried last night if I weren't running a new Windows Image Backup in case all of this goes haywire.  *smile*  The PW tool also has an option to change the MBR over to GPT entirely. That might work, but then I am not sure Windows 7 will boot (from what I read, x64 Win7 running on EFI-enabled hardware should work, but who knows).
    Anyway, I will try the following things, in order, until something works, when I get home tonight:
    From Windows, run Partition Wizard and try "Repair MBR".
    From OSX, download recent gptsync and try to run it.
    From Windows, use Partition Wizard to do a full MBR --> GPT conversion.
    Nuke the Windows partition in OSX Disk Utility, expand the HFS partition to take up the whole drive, and then add a Windows-bootable partition via Boot Camp-ish command line commands (diskutil). Because if nothing else works, I have to assume I just created the partitions wrong in the first place such that a Windows restore miraculously works, but the partition weirdness is just a timebomb waiting to happen.
    Finally, if none of the above work, I'll just get things back to the way they now work and wait for the timebomb to (possibly never) go off.  *smile*
    I'll update this thread if I get something figured out, in case anyone else stumbles upon it...
    Thanks,

  • What is the different between Logical complex join and Physical join?

    hi,
    Do somebody know what is the function different between logical complex join in BMM layer and physical join in physical layer?
    Thanks.

    Thank you very much1
    I understand their differentiation:
    In the BMM Complex join (intelligent), means OBI picks the best way from possibly many different ways to join using physical join. FK join forces the same join always, which limits flexibility.
