Error description
When multibos is used on a mirrored rootvg, the new lv including bos_hd5 will be created with mirrors. But the bootlist will be set and reset only on the first mirror copy. For example if system is booted from bos_hd5 which is mirrored on hdisk0 & hdisk1. multibos -RX run correctly, but then bootlist -om normal returns : hdisk0 blv=bos_hd5 hdisk0 blv=bos_hd5 and bootlist -m normal hdisk0 hdisk1 fails with : 0514-229 bootlist: Multiple boot logical volumes found on disk 'hdisk1'. Use the 'blv' attribute to specify the one from which to boot
Local fix
Manually set the bootlist correctly. Use chpv -c, & bosboot on the second mirror disk after multibos -R operation, then set the bootlist manually.
Problem summary
After a multibos remove operation on a mirrored rootvg system the mirrored boot volumes are not properly removed.
Problem conclusion
Modify the multibos bootlist and logical volume to handle the mirrored disk.
Temporary fix
