When booted from CDROM type the format command to see
what hard disks are present. You will see the disks present
with their controller, target and disk. It will look like:
AVAILABLE DISK SELECTIONS:
0. c1t0d0
There will be more information about the type and devices path information.
You are concerned with the "c#t#d#".
For Ultra-30 the first disk could be "c0t0d0" on Ultra-60 it will be "c1t0t0"
if you dont see the disk for the appropriate workstation restore will not work.

Thanks for the reply, here is our response pointwise.
We have checked these aspects and here are our findings:
1. Mirrored HDD was kept OFF during the restoration
2. The Primary HDD was connected to the SCSI on the workstation
3. The added SCSI was on slot no.4 as stated in IA documentation
4. The running station is Foxboro Model: P69006100291 Style/ Rev: GA Enet
Address: o:3:BA:03:2C:A7, Host ID 83032CA7 from which we took " BACKUP" and
trying to restore it on Ultra Sparc 60 Creator 3D machine P/N 600-6474-01.
Are these machine compatible with eachother for backup restoration?
5. How can we identify the SCSI Controller being used by the spare machine.
Thanks
Waseem
