Hi:

I need help. I have a couple of Solaris boxes running on Sun hardware. I need to find out the size of the attached internal as well as external hard drives, if any. I also need to find out what RAID levels are configured.

I would really appreciate quick answer.

Thanks in advance...
 
iostat -E or format < /dev/null will give you a list of the disks visible to the system.

RAID level is very much dependent on the software or hardware that is being used. Can you give any more detail about the storage hardware in use, or software packages installed (i.e. Veritas Volume Manager - try vxprint -Ath, Solaris Volume Manager/DiskSuite - try metastat, etc.)?

Annihilannic.
 
Another command to see disks -

echo | format
 
Many thanks guys... It did help...
