P2V options??
anyone ever do P2V for Solaris8/9/10 (sparc) using PLateSpin or other tool and the virtual works in VMware or VirtualBox? my client has some Solaris crud on various Sun hardware systems and have not been patched in a long time. question came up, how to restore the system if the hardware fails after a reboot or a patch cluster blows things up?
i though of
1. P2V
2. image the system
3. break disc mirror and patch the boot side of the mirror
any suggestions? P2V would be ideal.
