Hi Friends,
I am having Sun Solaris 5.8 OS installed having 2 different size hard disk, sizes are c0t0d0s0(160 GB) and c0t2d0s0 (40GB). I have installed Sun Solaris 5.8 OS in c0t0d0s0 (160GB) harddisk.
I have configured all the parameters required for disk mirroring. But when executing "dkconfig -wR" command, below error is displayed.
intelserv02 #dkconfig -wR
dkconfig: size of /dev/dsk/c0t2d0s0 is different from other piece
dkconfg: Bad configuration for mirror root.
dkconfig: No change in mirror root configuration
Can anyone please let me know how to resolved this problem.
Appreciate your help.
FYI, below are the complete disk info,

I came to know that Cylinders range should be same in order to do disk mirroring. But at this point, In disk0 OS has been installed. Are there any way to resize the Cylinders ranges without reinstalling the OS?
or any other ideas?...
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Vijay.
