Re: Solaris 10 SPARC on bootable Strpeset?

* Michael Vilain:

Sorry to be so oblique in my prior post. So, let me put it another way. There's NO WAY to boot Solaris from a _software_ RAID ANYTHING. Period. Clear enough for you?

Yes, thanks. Sorry, I probably have misunderstood your posting.

All this goes away if you're using HARDWARE RAID

Pronanly, but I doubt there is a hardware RAID controller that works with the Blade 1000's internal FC disks, and even if there would be one, most hardware RAID controllers are relative slow in RAID0 mode.

That won't help you, but that's the way it is.

Well, then I have to live with what I have for now and probably better look for a cheap 146GB or 300GB FC disk.
