Indeed, I did mean to write s3… Thanks for the correction.

Metainit hsp001 is really an optional step. It creates an empty hot spare pool and gets rid of an annoying warning on boot. If you don't mind seeing the warning, you can just skip this step.

I am not clear of what specifying the hsp001 on the last filesystem does. Is is needed to terminate the list? I guess i need to read the man pages a few more times - but perhaps you could clarify? TIA # /opt filesystem: metainit -f d14 1 1 c1t0d0s7 metainit d24 1 1 c1t1d0s7 metainit d34 -m d14 metainit hsp001 Have slightly different setup to you.

Have installed metadbs on slice 5 as follows:

metadb -a -f -c2 /dev/dsk/c1t1d0s5 /dev/dsk/c1t2d0s5

metainit d20 1 1 c1t2d0s0
metainit d30 -m d10
metaroot d30
So far so good for the root partition.

I’ve been using s2 for this, although you could use any slice you wish." but I think you mean s3. You say:
