Configuring a Boot Device on the EMC Storage Array
6. Change to the root directory of the LUN you have set up and
dump the O/S:
Example:
cd /bootarray
ufsdump 0f - /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s0 | ufsrestore rf -
Repeat this for each partition you created.
7. Record the complete path of the boot LUN by running the
following command:
ls -l /dev/dsk/emcpower0a
Output from command:
Record the
/pseudo/emcp@0:a,blk.
8. Once the dump is done, edit
/bootarray/etc/vfstab to change
the original partitions to reflect the partitions on the new boot
disk.
Example:
vi /bootarray/etc/vfstab
Change the lines shown in bold below as follows:
