--- With any luck the file /etc/opt/SUNWmd/md.tab or md.cf will tell you a lot about the config. md.tab has a lot of comments, but the installer must have updated it by hand. I think md.cf is automagically updated, regardless of whether they use the gui or command line to configure, so if you compare it with the comments in md.tab you can probably figure it out.--- AROSSITE@us.oracle.com --- /dev/md/ says it is a DiskSuite volume (/dev/vx/ says it's a Veritas volume, /dev/RAID_Module*/ says it is a RSM disk array). You can look at the configuration files in /etc/opt/SUNWmd/. The DiskSuite commands, man pages, etc. are in /usr/opt/SUNWmd (for some reason; I symlink /opt/SUNWmd to there for commonality). If the AnswerBooks are installed, they are probably in /opt/SUNWabmd or /opt/SUNWsabmd. You could also try the Sun's documentation web site, docs.sun.com.--- shobhit@mtcts1.mt.lucent.com--- This is a metadevice set up using Online Disk Suite.execute metastat and it will show you the details of this device like what is its status and what are its actual physical components.These devices are set through a file /etc/opt/SUNWmd/md.tab. If you need more info I would suggest to lay your hands on the ODS manual.--- Derek_Cameron@eagle.co.nz--- This has been done using Solstice DiskSuite which comes on a separate cd bundled with the Solaris2.5.1 server software. >From the command line use the metastat command (/usr/opt/SUNWmd/sbin/metastat - from memory) to view the composition and status of the metadevice d0 thus: metastat d0 <cr> If you have a graphics head on your system there is a GUI called metatool you can use for the same purpose. There is also an answerbook package on the SDS cd which provides full manuals for this product. Trust this has at least pointed you in the right direction.---
