Using SMIT to Create a RAID-Copy Array from a RAID-1 or RAID-10 Array
This section describes how to use the SMIT menus to create RAID-copy arrays. This
method and the ssaraid command method (see “Using the ssaraid Command to Create
a RAID-Copy Array from a RAID-1 or RAID-10 Array” on page 151) are particularly
suitable if you are not using Logical Volume Manager LVM). For more details about the
SMIT menus, see “SMIT Menus for 3-Way Copy Operations” on page 172.
method and the ssaraid command method (see “Using the ssaraid Command to Create

SMIT menus, see “SMIT Menus for 3-Way Copy Operations” on page 172.
Note: Data must be separately synchronized from system memory cache before the
copy is uncoupled.
The procedure that is described here enables you to :
v
Create a RAID-Copy array from available candidate disk drives
v
Couple the RAID-Copy array to your selected parent RAID-1 or RAID-10 array
v
Copy data from the parent array to the RAID-Copy array
v
Uncouple the RAID-Copy array from the parent array
v
Delete the RAID-Copy array when the copy data is no longer required
1. Select Array Copy Services from the SSA RAID Arrays menu.
2. Select Prepare a RAID Array Copy. A list of the RAID-1 and RAID-10 arrays that
are not coupled to any copy arrays is displayed; for example:
