Thanks go to Helmut Kreft with his reply below. It turned out I was getting a little too aggressive in disabling services to minimize my box. By checking the dependencies on the mdmonitor service I was able to trace back that the rpc/meta service relied on the inetd service which I previously disabled. By enabling inetd again, then doing another init 6, all the mirrors now sync correctly and metastat shows everything as Okay. >For some reason or another you have to have enabled > > kreft@stest1:/lib/svc/method$ svcs -l mdmonitor > fmri svc:/system/mdmonitor:default > name SVM monitor > enabled true > state online > next_state none > state_time Wed Jun 01 14:51:38 2005 > logfile /var/svc/log/system-mdmonitor:default.log > restarter svc:/system/svc/restarter:default > dependency require_all/none svc:/system/filesystem/minimal (online) > dependency require_all/none svc:/system/metainit (online) > dependency optional_all/none svc:/network/rpc/meta (online) > >Mind the dependencies. > > Helmut Original Posting __________________ Hello, I'm testing out Solaris 10 03/05 on my E250 with 6 hard drives. I used SVM to setup some mirrors including the root partition like I've done before on my Solaris 9 boxes. However, it seems that every time I reboot this test box and I run metastat, the submirrors always say "Needs maintenance". I run "metasync <mirror>" and it syncs back up rather quickly, but then I have to do it again after the next init 6 when I test another option. Is there something I forget to add to keep the mirrors in sync after a reboot? Does anyone else see this behavior?
