If you use ::mdb -k on the live kernel, and then ::ps or ::pgrep to locate the proc_t address of the process of interest, you can use the kernel dcmd <proc-address>::pfiles. Prior to Eric's work to add vnode pathnames in Solaris 10, this will provide some limited visibility by doing DNLC lookups on the various vnodes. If you really desperately need the information and you can't get it that way, find the vnode ops, get to the filesystem- specific data (v_data), and then look at the raw information. For example, for UFS you could find the inode number and then use find -inum on the filesystem to locate the file. Painful, but if you're stuck on S8 and really want the answer, that is one way to get it. -Mike -- Mike Shapiro, Solaris Kernel Development. blogs.sun.com/mws/
