    Hi Gurus,

      Is there a way to directly mount a partition that has Solaris Volume
    Manager / Disksuite databases on it ?

    I have slice c0t0d0s6 (and c0t0d1s6) which was mirrored /opt and had
    metadb's on it. Now I want to boot from the network/cdrom and then mount
    this slice on /mnt outside of disksuite control:

    #mount /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s6 /mnt
    c0t0d0s6 not this fstype

    Can I mount this slice ?

    When I try to mount any slice that did not have metadb's...it works fine.

    Thanks,
    -ansh
