5. Issue the drd clone command on the source system with the new LUN as the target disk:
Caution:
Only use the -x overwrite=true option if you are sure
that the target disk is not currently in use and can be
overwritten.
# drd clone -v -x overwrite=true -t /dev/disk/disk19

6. Create a sysinfo file with information needed to boot the clone disk on the new blade.
It is convenient to start with a copy of the template /etc/opt/drd/default_sysinfo_file
delivered with DRD. This file contains comments indicating the syntax of each variable.
a. # cp /etc/opt/drd/default_sysinfo_file \
/var/opt/drd/tmp/drdblade.sysinfo
b. # vi /var/opt/drd/tmp/drdblade_demo.sysinfo
c. If you want to supply all information to interactive screens displayed when the new blade
is booted, no changes to the file are needed.
If you would prefer that the boot proceed without need for human interaction, comment
out the line SYSINFO_INTERACTIVE=ALWAYS, and add the needed information to the
file. In this case, you must specify at least the hostname and the network information for
the interfaces defined in the profile. For a given network interface specified as index ā€œnā€,
you must specify either SYSINFO_MAC_ADDRESS[n] or SYSINFO_LAN_HW)_PATH[n]
(with SYSINFO_MAC_ADDRESS[n] taking precedence) AND either
SYSINFO_DHCP_ENABLE[n]=1 or SYSINFO_IP_ADDRESS[n] and
SYSINFO_SUBNET_MASK[n]. In the latter case, it is usually helpful to also specify
SYSINFO_GATEWAY_ADDRESS[n].
For the first interface you want to configure, specify:
