        Hi admins,

        One of my disks seems to be sick , because I have a lot of
        errors while dumping it (dump: Bad read from input disk
        file: /dev/rrz2b, block number: 4407280, bytes wanted: 8192etc..)
        so I decide to put a new one and move all what is on the
        old to the new disk.
        Old disk is disk1, new disk is disk2.
        Are the following manipulations right ?? :
        - single user
        - disklabel new disk
         - newfs
         - mount new_disk to /mnt
        - vdump -0 -f - /disk1 | (cd mnt ; vrestore -x -f -)
        - update fstab
        - eventually fsck -p from disk2 ??

        TIA

        JEAN
