Usually i find cfgadm -a helpful enough for that (mayby adding '|grep disk' to it). Why sometimes 4 and sometimes 6 characters: c3d1 <- this would be disk#1 on controller#3 c3d0s0 <- this would be slice #0 (partition) on disk #0 on controller #3 Usually there is a also t0 there, e.g.: cfgadm -a|grep disk |head sata0/0::dsk/c0t0d0 disk connected configured ok sata0/1::dsk/c0t1d0 disk connected configured ok sata0/2::dsk/c0t2d0 disk connected configured ok sata0/3::dsk/c0t3d0 disk connected configured ok sata0/4::dsk/c0t4d0 disk connected configured ok sata0/5::dsk/c0t5d0 disk connected configured ok sata0/6::dsk/c0t6d0 disk connected configured ok sata0/7::dsk/c0t7d0 disk connected configured ok sata1/0::dsk/c1t0d0 disk connected configured ok sata1/1::dsk/c1t1d0 disk connected configured ok HTH Carsten _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
