Symptoms
Solaris Volume Manager (SWM) stores its configuration on state database replicas, also known as replicas, located on disk drives within the configuration. Due to the importance of replicas, at least three working replicas need to be present. These may be self-contained within a single disk partition, or dispersed across many disks on many disk partitions.
The metadb command is used to examine replicas and their current status. For further information regarding the status of a replica please use the "-i" option. Typically an upper case letter represents a faulted replica, but may also appear as "unknown".
Below there are six replicas across two disk drive partitions. The three replicas on c0t3d0s3 are working. The three replicas on c1t2d0s3 are faulted.
