I am facing problems with SVM installed on vmware workstation on intel platform. I have created replicas and a mirror volume using unmountable slices. But when I reboot my hardware I am not able to execute any SVM cmd's getting an error "there are no existing databases."
Below are o/p's of few cmd's
bash-3.00# echo | format
