Mirroring the root volume
Can we add a HSZ40 (rz28) mirror to an existing local rz28 root volume
(/, swap, /usr, /var) without too much pain. We have had a hard time
doing this because of the larger partition size of the local rz28.
As a workaround we built the root volume on the HSZ40 rz28 first, then
added the local rz28 as the mirror. Is there another way to do this or
is our workaround the only way.
thanks,
dave mahder

Hi,
This is not an LSM problem. When you want to mirror the filesystems
present on a disk, you need at least the same space on the target
volume(s).
A disk connected to an HSZ40 has always a certain number of sectors
reserved for the HSZ configuration. So your problem is coming from the
fact a local RZ28 is always greater than an HSZ-connected RZ28.
You can also change the disklabel of the local RZ28 such that it
doesn't use more space than the HSZ-RZ28.
Regards, Manu.
