When the system attempts to boot, it fails to find a valid device as required by the boot-device path at device alias "disk". It then attempts to boot from the network:
screen not found. Can't open input device. Keyboard not present. Using ttya for input and output. Sun Ultra 30 UPA/PCI (UltraSPARC-II 296MHz), No Keyboard OpenBoot 3.27, 512 MB memory installed, Serial #9377973. Ethernet address 8:0:20:8f:18:b5, Host ID: 808f18b5. Initializing Memory Timeout waiting for ARP/RARP packet Timeout waiting for ARP/RARP packet Timeout waiting for ARP/RARP packet ...
At this point, the administrator realizes that the boot disk has failed, and queries the device aliases to find the one corresponding to the veritas mirror:
ok devalias vx-rootmirror /pci@1f,4000/scsi@3/disk@1,0:a vx-rootdisk /pci@1f,4000/scsi@3/disk@0,0:a . . .
The administrator then boots the system from the mirror device "vx-rootmirror":
ok boot vx-rootmirror
As the system boots, Veritas volume manager detects that the volumes on the rootdisk are not accessible, and detaches those plexes from the root volumes. In spite of this, the system is able to boot cleanly from the mirror device with no operator action required.

Once the reboot is complete, the administrator then logs into the system and checks the status of the system. Note that the device c0t0d0s2 is listed as "failed", and the all plexes on that device are listed as "DISABLED/NODEVICE".

The administrator replaces the failed disk with a new disk of the same geometry. Depending on the system model, the disk replacement may require that the system be powered down. Once the operating system can "see" the new disk c0t0d0 via the format command, the administrator tells Veritas volume manager to rescan the system via the "vxdctl enable" command.
# format Searching for disks...done AVAILABLE DISK SELECTIONS: 0. c0t0d0/pci@1f,4000/scsi@3/sd@0,0 1. c0t1d0 /pci@1f,4000/scsi@3/sd@1,0 Specify disk (enter its number): ^D # vxdctl enable # vxdisk list DEVICE TYPE DISK GROUP STATUS c0t0d0s2 sliced - - error c0t1d0s2 sliced rootmirror rootdg online - - rootdisk rootdg failed was:c0t0d0s2
Now the administrator can make use of "vxdiskadm" to manage the process of replacing the boot disk volumes.

Having replaced the disk in Veritas volume manager, the disk device is now listed as "online", and VxVM is in the process of attaching the replacement plexes to the original volumes.
