How to Replace a Failed Disk in SVM (Solaris Volume Manager)
To replace a failed Disk in SVM Please follow this Procedure:
1. Take infodump. 
2. Delete metadb replica. 
metadb -d /dev/dsk/c1t0d0s7 
3. Detach the root disk from the mirror. 
metadetach d0 d10 
metadetach d1 d11 
metadetach d3 d13 
metadetach d4 d14 
metadetach d5 d15 
metadetach d6 d16 
metaclear d10 
metaclear d11 
metaclear d13 
metaclear d14 
metaclear d15 
metaclear d16 
4. Un-configure the disk. 
5. As the HW engineer to replace the disk. 
6. Scan and Configure the disk. devfsadm 
6. Once the Disk has been replaced, Please fire following command. 
prtvtoc /dev/rdsk/c1t1d0s2 | fmthard -s - /dev/rdsk/c1t0d0s2 
7. Create metadisks. 
metainit d10 1 1 c1t0d0s0 
metainit d11 1 1 c1t0d0s1 
metainit d13 1 1 c1t0d0s3 
metainit d14 1 1 c1t0d0s4 
metainit d15 1 1 c1t0d0s5 
metainit d16 1 1 c1t0d0s6 
8.Attach submirror to mirror. 
metattach d0 d10 
metattach d1 d11 
metattach d3 d13 
metattach d4 d14 
metattach d5 d15 
metattach d6 d16 
9. Create replica. 
metadb -a -c3 /dev/dsk/c1t0d0s7
