This chapter contains procedures for troubleshooting problems 
you may experience while installing or maintaining systems 
that use disk mirroring.

If you run out of space on the /

(root) file system—while trying to install 

Solaris patches, for example—you probably installed your /cms swap file 
on 

root. Do the following to recover:

1. Unmount 

/cms:

umount

/cms

2. Enter the command:

ls

-l

/cms

If the output of that command lists a swap file, do the following:

a. Enter:

mount

/cms

Remounts /cms.

b. Enter:

df

-k

Verifies that space is available.

When using metadetach and metattach to detach and then reattach a 
submirror, it may take a long time—sometimes hours—for resync to 
complete. You cannot do any maintenance (adding or replacing disks and 
so on) while the resync is in progress. That behavior is normal. Try again 
later.
