metadb information in /etc/system file

[joephilip]

My /etc/system file has the following informtion on metadb; it shows two entries like sd:7 and ssd:39 - where does it assign these numbers to the actual disks?


set md:mddb_bootlist1="sd:7:16 sd:7:1050 sd:7:2084 ssd:39:16 ssd:39:1050"
set md:mddb_bootlist2="ssd:39:2084"
----------------------------------
Following is the metadb -i output:

flags first blk block count
a m p luo 16 1034 /dev/dsk/c1t0d0s7
a p luo 1050 1034 /dev/dsk/c1t0d0s7
a p luo 2084 1034 /dev/dsk/c1t0d0s7
a p luo 16 1034 /dev/dsk/c0t0d4s7
a p luo 1050 1034 /dev/dsk/c0t0d4s7
a p luo 2084 1034 /dev/dsk/c0t0d4s7
