What is the command to find out about the local disks on solaris, like how many and what kind. is there a command other then format. Thanks

From the OK> prompt, you can run the following:

setenv auto-boot? false
reset-all

Once the system gets back to the ok> prompt,

probe-scsi-all

When you are done:

setenv auto-boot? true (if this is the state you want).

For this I have to shut down the machine, the reason I asked is that we have about 100+ sun machines and I wana to check how many local disks are there for each machine...thanks

How about this...

prtconf -v | grep dad@

This command will find the Disk Model Number for the dad ide disk drive. If you have different platforms, you may have to modify the grep command.

Hi,

No need to bang your head that hard, use the format command.
This will list out all disk information.

Example :

#format
Searching for disks...done
