SVM - metadb and 4 disks ?


Solaris 10 update 5 (SPARC)

I have 4 disks and Im going to set them in 2x RAID1 (mirror).
Code:
pair 1:
c0t0d0 - /(root), /usr, /export/home
c1t0d0 - /(root), /usr, /export/home

pair 2:
c2t0d0 - /opt
c3t0d0 - /opt
Do I need to create separate metadb for each pair:
Code:
pair 1:
metadb -af -c 2 /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s5
metadb -af -c 2 /dev/dsk/c1t0d0s5

pair 2:
metadb -af -c 2 /dev/dsk/c2t0d0s5
metadb -af -c 2 /dev/dsk/c3t0d0s5
or it is enough to have just metadb on pair 1 and that will work also for another disks ?


ps.
never before had more that 2 disks to mirror... this situation confuse me

I hope you figure it out in last two years.

Otherwise, just be a little bit more patient

Haha, actually not, I didnt figure it out .
For last more than 2 years I stopped to work with Solaris at all. Recently I was looking at all my old posts and I found this one.
I'm just curious how it should be.
