8. Activate the destination client partition in SMS mode and select the disk to
boot from that was originally on the source partition. The output below shows
the available SCSI devices from SMS from our example. The disk in slot C9 is
our original rootvg disk.

9. When the destination partition has completed its boot, verify that the disks
that are visible are in fact the original disks from the source partition and that
the data is intact. In our example below, our destination client sees the
original disks as hdisk8 and hdisk9 as is seen from the following lspv
command output. The remaining lsdev commands show that they appear as
virtual SCSI disks and they map to the virtual SCSI adapters vscsi2 and
vscsi3.
# lspv | grep active
hdisk8 000fe4117e88efc0 rootvg active
hdisk9 000fe41181e1734c datasrcvg active
# lsdev -l hdisk8
hdisk8 Available Virtual SCSI Disk Drive
# lsdev -l hdisk9
hdisk9 Available Virtual SCSI Disk Drive
# lsdev -l hdisk8 -F parent
vscsi2
# lsdev -l hdisk9 -F parent
vscsi3
The remaining commands provide additional evidence that hdisk8 and hdisk9
are in fact the same disks that were visible on the original client partition.
