unable to mirror/attach new storage disk(dmp device) in zpool solaris 11
Hi Team,
We are migrating storage on server from existing to new. So we want to mirror pool with existing storage disks to new one & then detach old disks once all seems fine. We ordered new storage disks as below.
Note: We have VCS,VXVM configured as well.
storwizev70000_0008c6 auto:none - - online invalid thinrclm c24t50050768102569D5d294 tprclm
existing storage disks
san_vc0_000072 auto:ZFS - - ZFS c20t500507680C117A1Bd0 tprclm
we labeled new storage disks with EFI & try to mirror it with existing storage disks in pool, we are getting error.
