Live Upgrade versus Boot Mirrors
2007-12-25 3:23:00
I've been dragging my heals on Live Upgrade for a long long time and I
now feel its usable in a production environment. However, many Sun
systems only have 2 disks provisioned for root disks. Currently I'm
using 2 disks per system mirrored via VxVM or SVM. Because I've
allocated the full capacity of the disks to root/swap/other I can't
slide LU in.
So here's the question. Is anyone letting go of their root disk mirrors
and solely relying on LU to cover them? Right now I have to choose,
mirrors or LU, and I'm leaning towards LU. The alternative is to try
and find a place to start adding UniPak's, which I'd prefer to avoid.
I don't think anyone would want to unmirror their disks, but given the
constraints there has got to be at least a couple of you guys using LU
solely.
Any experience/opinions are appreciated. I'll summarize.
