SPARC: Disk Configuration File Example

The following example shows how to create a single–disk configuration file, 104_test, on a SPARC based system with a 104-Mbyte disk.


Example 4–8 SPARC: Creating a Disk Configuration File

You redirect the output of the prtvtoc command to a single–disk configuration file that is named 104_test:


# prtvtoc /dev/rdsk/c0t3d0s2 >104_test

The contents of the 104_test file resemble the following:

* /dev/rdsk/c0t3d0s2 partition map
*
* Dimensions:
*     512 bytes/sector
*      72 sectors/track
*      14 tracks/cylinder
*    1008 sectors/cylinder
*    2038 cylinders*    2036 accessible cylinders
* Flags:
*   1: unmountable
*  10: read-only
*
*                          First     Sector    Last
* Partition  Tag  Flags    Sector     Count    Sector  Mount Directory
