Hello,

Can someone tell me what the difference is between the wu or wm flags when using the format command in Solaris 8/02 (SPARC)>? Any reference to pages on the web would be greatly appreciated.

For example:

format> verify

Primary label contents:

Volume name = < >
ascii name = <SUN9.0G cyl 4924 alt 2 hd 27 sec 133>
pcyl = 4926
ncyl = 4924
acyl = 2
nhead = 27
nsect = 133
Part Tag Flag Cylinders Size Blocks
  0 root wm 0 - 4923 8.43GB (4924/0/0) 17682084
  1 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0
  2 backup wm 0 - 4923 8.43GB (4924/0/0) 17682084
  3 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0
  4 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0
  5 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0
  6 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0
  7 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0

Thank you,
