I heard I can use this to copy data from one disk to another, basically copying over the exact data on disk one to disk two, can anyone give me some ideas on how to do this?
dd if=/dev/hda of=/dev/hdb
Would copy all data of hda onto hdb. You can also output to an image even:
dd if=/dev/hda of=/mnt/backup/hda.img
Basically if is what you are cloning and of= is your destination.
You would also have to replace where I have mention /dev/hdx with the relevent devices for solaris.
