About cloning HDD [SOLVED + PROCESS]
Hi,

Before cloning the HDD of my Octane, I would like some precisions about the process I have to follow to use the CLONE script (here) :

1- My backup HDD is dks0d3s7 ; do I have to unmount it before "fx" it to be a root disk ? (This HDD have been initialize with the Disk Manager)

2- About "fx" sequence. It should be look like that :
Code:
fx: "device-name" = (dksc) ENTER
fx: ctlr# = (0) ENTER
fx: drive# = (3) ENTER
fx> r
fx/repartition> ro
fx/repartition/rootdrive: type of data part. = (xfs) ENTER
fx/repartition> ..
fx> exi

Is that right OR do I have to follow the 4 first points found here : https://wiki.preterhuman.net/Clone_System_Disk

3- About CLONE script.
As it's discribed, this script only works with a disk with scsi id 2.
So I have to remove my HDD 2 (dsk0d2s7) and replace it by my Backup HDD (dsk0d3s7) or can I simply do "./clone 3" ?

Thanks by advance for your answers :-)
