Goal
During the boot process, Solaris Volume Manager (SVM) probes for available state database replicas. If SVM does not find "enough" available replicas, one will see the following messages:
The issue occur when the partition which include the local metadb/replica is gone.
For example:
- When a disk is broken which contain local replicas (typical a root/boot disk)
- When a disk which contains local replicas was repartitioned without deleteing the replicas
This document provides solution to recover from hitting the problem of getting "Insufficient metadevice database replicas."
