Mirroring the Preinstalled Solaris OS with Sun StorageTek REM Card

The Sun StorageTek REM card enables you to choose from many RAID configurations. How you configure your system depends on your system requirements and the available hard disk drives in the system.

This procedure describes how to mirror the preinstalled Solaris OS. This is the better option, and all remaining disks (should there be more than two) are incorporated into a DATA RAID set using the available options as shown in TABLE 5-3.

You will need the Sun Blade X6270 Server Module Tools & Drivers CD to perform this procedure.

3.Insert the supplied Tools & Drivers CD, and copy the StorMan.dss application, located in the /mount-point/RAIDmgmt/StorageTEK/Solarisdirectory, to the new directory you created on your Solaris server, for example, /StorMan.

4.Change the permissions of the new directory and StorMan application, type: chmod 777 StormMan.pkg

5.Run the following command to install the application: pkgadd -d StorMan.pkg

6.Choose to install all components when prompted.

7.To run the application, type:

sh /opt/StorMan/StorMan.sh

A split screen appears.
