commands:
# cd /olds

<newdisk1> and <newdisk2> represent the device names of the
disk drives added (remember that in a mirrored system, disk drives
are always added in pairs). For example:
# olds -mirrored -mk_files c0t10d0 c0t11d0
10. Load the file /etc/opt/SUNWmd/md.tab.new into an editor and make
certain it names all of your disks, including the ones you just added.
(For an example of the md.tab file format, see
system files" on page
11. Save a copy of the existing md.tab file by entering the following
command:
# cp /etc/opt/SUNWmd/md.tab /etc/opt/SUNWmd/md.tab.mirror
12. Replace the existing md.tab file with the one you created in
# cp /etc/opt/SUNWmd/md.tab.new /etc/opt/SUNWmd/md.tab
