    Hi sun gurus,
    I have a question about spare disks on solstice
    disk suite. Below I have a metastat listing which
    describes my setup. I have a system with a mir-
    rored and striped metadevice named d30. It
    had the 2nd disk of d32 fail, which was named
    c1t9d0s6, and solstice disk suite replaced it with
    disk c1t12d0s6. I have since replaced the def-
    ective c1t9d0s6. I was wondering if it is possible
    to just make c1t12d0s6 the 2nd disk of d32 per-
    mantly and put the new disk, c1t9d0s6, in the
    hot spare pool, hsp001.

    ps: Of course I will need to partition the actual disk
    c1t9d0 so that all of its space sits in s6 like the
    others.
