I have a question about how to relate disk device path names to their CxTxDx
equivalents. I have had a script runing for several years which, among
other things, looks at the eeprom parms for boot-device, and reports what
the primary and alternate boot devices are in CxTxDx format. It does this
by running a "prtconf -vp" and retrieving the path names associated with
"disk" or "disk1" from the eeprom listing. Then it looks up the path name
in /dev/dsk and gets the CxTxDx name. Pretty straighforward.
Except that we just installed a couple of SunFire 880 systems and the logic
no longer works. The path name from "prtconf -vp" returns:
'/pci@8,600000/SUNW,qlc@2/fp@0,0/disk@0,0'. This path name does not exist
in /dev/dsk. Instead I see the following: c1t0d0s0 ->
../../devices/pci@8,600000/SUNW,qlc@2/fp@0,0/ssd@w21000004cf62063c,0:a.
Is there some way to relate the path obtained from prtconf to the entries in
/dev/dsk so I can find the appropriate CxTxDx? Alternatively, is there a
better way to do this.
TIA, and I will send a summary.
