Play with soft partitions on Solaris part 2

2. Create solaris partition on the disks
# fdisk -W /tmp/partition /dev/rdsk//c1t0d0p0
# fdisk -F /tmp/partition /dev/rdsk//c1t1d0p0
# fdisk -F /tmp/partition /dev/rdsk//c1t2d0p0
# fdisk -F /tmp/partition /dev/rdsk//c1t3d0p0
# fdisk -F /tmp/partition /dev/rdsk//c1t4d0p0


3. We will populate this disk map over the rest of the disks in automatic way to avoid human errors

# prtvtoc /dev/rdsk/c1t0d0s2 > /tmp/c1t0d0s2.toc
# fmthard -s /tmp/c1t0d0s2.toc /dev/rdsk/c1t1d0s2
fmthard:  New volume table of contents now in place
# fmthard -s /tmp/c1t0d0s2.toc /dev/rdsk/c1t2d0s2
fmthard:  New volume table of contents now in place
# fmthard -s /tmp/c1t0d0s2.toc /dev/rdsk/c1t3d0s2
fmthard:  New volume table of contents now in place
# fmthard -s /tmp/c1t0d0s2.toc /dev/rdsk/c1t4d0s2
fmthard:  New volume table of contents now in place

4. And create 2 copies of metadb on each of the 4 disks

# metadb -a -f -c 2 c1t0d0s7 c1t1d0s7 c1t2d0s7 c1t3d0s7 c1t4d0s7


5. Create RAID 5 array

# metainit d5 -r c1t0d0s0 c1t1d0s0 c1t2d0s0 c1t3d0s0 c1t4d0s0
d5: RAID is setup
6. And check the status of array
# metastat d5
d5: RAID
    State: Okay
