Summary: Recovering from disk failure

Hi all,

thanks a lot to

Bill Voight <bvoight@patriot.net>
grove@zeta.org.au

who both pointed me into the right direction. I was stupid enough to 
not do a "boot -r" after fixing the problem in the SCSI BIOS. Issuing 
the command

	devfsadm -C

rebuilt the /dev tree and gave me back the /dev/dsk/c1t6d0 link. 
Everything is fine again. I am still wondering why the SCSI BIOS 
removed the array for this disk when it failed though. Whatever,... 
problem solved for now! :-)

Thanks,

  Andreas
