I just got my hands on a very clean and well kept RS/6000 server
(7046-B50 for those who understand IBM model number gibberish). I was
wondering what the most effective way to clone and swap out the boot
drive might be. The disks in it are a pair of well worn IBM 18GBs and
all I want to do is swap them for some quieter Seagate 18GBs I have
in my Netra (currently not in use).
I'm running AIX 5.3L and have a pretty-much clean install. Can I just
'dd' the raw device to the new disk?
