Thanks to (in order of appearance): Laurinda Chamberlin Aaron M Hirsch Darren Dunham Joon Martin Hansen Jay Lessert Joe Fletcher Raymond Plassart and Khalil Hammid Volume Manager 3.2 leaves 1 cylinder unallocated by default when adding disks to diskgroups. There are 2 solutions, specify the offset for the public region, or add the patch from Sun for Veritas 3.2 (113201) and then use the old_layout attribute to vxdisksetup /usr/lib/vxvm/bin/vxdisksetup -i cxtxdx old_layout Original message: ---------- I'm installing veritas 3.2 during a sol8 jumpstart onto 18gb d1000 drives on an e10k domain. Afterwards when I log in and add disks to the root disk group so I can mirror the root drive this is the partition table Veritas lays down...it is 1 cylinder short, partition 4 should start on cyln 1 not 2. As a result I can't mirror the root disk. Anyone have any ideas?
