Lost Disk

Hi,

I have a severe problem and hope someone out there can help me.

It seems like one of the NT sysadmins by accident wrote signatures to the
SAN disk allocated to some UNIX systems.

My first question is how can I confirm this.

Secondly, is there a way I could try to copy the Solaris signature from one
disk on one of the systems which are still fine, to one of these "corrupted
disks" in the hope that the content of the LUN has not yet been erased?

The LUNs were under Veritas volume manager control. The systems are a mix
of Solaris 2.6 and Solaris 8. The disk subsystem is HDS 9960 and the LUNs
are formatted as HITACHI-OPEN-E*5-0117 (the "5" varies depending on size of
the expanded LUN)

Some of the LUNs used to be protected by SANtinel, which lost it's
configuration shortly prior to this incident - we still need to work out
why.
