Cloning a disk/server
2007-12-25 0:33:00
source, machine B is the destination. Machine A is running Solaris 2.8. I
would like to clone the boot disk and install it in machine B and then run
sys-unconfig to reconfigure. The only difference between the two machines
is that machine A has a PGX32 video card in it. I'm unsure of the type of
video in machine B, but I know it is not a PGX32. Machine A is a 4-way
400Mhz w/ 4GB RAM. Machine B is a 4-way 300Mhz with 2GB RAM. Machine A has
a mirrored boot disk (using DiskSuite), but I will unencapsulate before the
"cloning". Other than that, both machines are identical in respect to
hardware.
Is this feasable, and how would you recommend that I accomplish this?
Thanks. Will summarize.
