This command effectively resyncs submirrors. 

device: 

devicename

cannot be setup or does 

not exist

Explanation: The device named is a CD-ROM drive or is not available 

and will not be used in the 

Solstice DiskSuite setup.

Verify that the device should not be used. 

device: 

devicename

will not be used

Explanation: The device named is a CD-ROM drive or is not available 

and will not be used in the 

Solstice DiskSuite setup.

If the device is c0t6d0, it is a CD-ROM drive and no 
further action is required. If the device is a disk, verify the 
sanity of the message: check device availability, for 
example, or use a 

format

 command to view partition 

sizes, etc. 

disk 

diskname already setup, exiting...

Explanation: You are trying to attach a disk that is already attached or 

is part of the base configuration. No response is 
necessary.

disk: 

diskname slice 1 is not partitioned 

correctly

Explanation: Disk is partitioned incorrectly, or the 

olds script was run 

without the 

-mirrored option.

Try rerunning the command with the -mirrored option. If 
that doesn’t work, repartition the disk.

If 

diskname is the primary boot disk, you must reload 

Solaris, repartitioning the disk correctly in the process. If 
diskname is not the primary boot disk, you can repartition 
it with the 

Solaris 

format

 command.
