Much of this information has been available in a di_init(3DEVINFO) snapshot for a long time. The missing size/serial# stuff should be in snv_69/s10u5 per 6572672 delivery of
SCSI inquiry property enhancement http://opensolaris.org/os/community/arc/caselog/2007/329/ Device Size Properties http://opensolaris.org/os/community/arc/caselog/2007/339/ Look in "Mail Folder". The man page changes associated with these cases (6573023) has not delivered, I will check on why. Does that cover all your needs? -Chris Richard Elling wrote: > sysinfo isn't very sophisticated.
