OpenSolaris 2008.11 Hard Drive Device mapping
Dear Solaris Experts,
I am a bit confused about OpenSolaris Hard Drive device mapping. On RedHat Linux based system, an IDE on first channel master drive is mapped as /dev/hda, first channel slave drive will be /dev/hdb, etc.
For (Open)Solaris systems I found it as /dev/rdsk/c3d0p0 :
myself@myopensolaris:/dev# format
Searching for disks...done
AVAILABLE DISK SELECTIONS:
0. c3d0 <DEFAULT cyl 1539 alt 2 hd 255 sec 63>
/pci@0,0/pci-ide@1f,1/ide@0/cmdk@0,0
myself@myopensolaris:/dev/rdsk# prtvtoc ./c3d0p0
* ./c3d0p0 partition map
*
* Dimensions:
* 512 bytes/sector
* 63 sectors/track
* 255 tracks/cylinder
* 16065 sectors/cylinder
* 1541 cylinders
* 1539 accessible cylinders
*
* Flags:
* 1: unmountable
* 10: read-only
*
* Unallocated space:
* First Sector Last
* Sector Count Sector
* 0 16065 16064
*
* First Sector Last
* Partition Tag Flags Sector Count Sector Mount Directory
0 2 00 16065 24691905 24707969
2 5 01 0 24724035 24724034
8 1 01 0 16065 16064
note :
This printout is generated on IBM Thinkpad T42 with 40GB IDE HDD (NOT SATA) on the second partition.
My questions are :
1. Is there any simple hard drive device mapping rules like Redhat/Linux systems ?
2. How can I identify slave hard drive in the first IDE Channels ? On Redhat/Linux, this drive will be mapped as /dev/hdb.
3. How about SATA drives ? In Linux this drive is mapped as
/dev/sda, /dev/sdb, etc. Same thing also for SCSI drives.
4. What is the meaning of /pci@0,0/pci-ide@1f,1/ide@0/cmdk@0,0 ?
5. Is there any urls that explains the device mapping in a practical ways for Linux Adminstrators ?
6. How about IDE CD-ROM mapping?
7. How to format the correct partition using newfs (UFS) or create FS using ZFS ? In linux it is very simple.
Need more enlightement on this new environment.
For answers, any web URLs is more than enough for me to read and learn. I already asked uncle Google but still could not hit the correct page.
Many thanks in advance.

Zepiroth Hong.

prtvtoc
prtvtoc(1M) System Administration Commands prtvtoc(1M) NAME
prtvtoc - report information about a disk geometry and partitioning SYNOPSIS
prtvtoc [-fhs] [-t vfstab] [-m mnttab] device DESCRIPTION
The prtvtoc command allows the contents of the label to be viewed. The command can be used only by the super-user. The device name can be the file name of a raw device in the form of /dev/rdsk/c?t?d?s2 or can be the file name of a block device in the form of /dev/dsk/c?t?d?s2. OPTIONS
The following options are supported: -f Report on the disk free space, including the starting block address of the free space, number of blocks, and unused parti- tions. -h Omit the headers from the normal output. -m mnttab Use mnttab as the list of mounted filesystems, in place of /etc/mnttab. -s Omit all headers but the column header from the normal output. -t vfstab Use vfstab as the list of filesystem defaults, in place of /etc/vfstab. EXAMPLES
Example 1: Using the prtvtoc Command The following example uses the prtvtoc command on a 424-megabyte hard disk: example# prtvtoc /dev/rdsk/c0t3d0s2 * /dev/rdsk/c0t3d0s2 partition map * * Dimension: * 512 bytes/sector * 80 sectors/track * 9 tracks/cylinder * 720 sectors/cylinder * 2500 cylinders * 1151 accessible cylinders * * Flags: * 1: unmountable * 10: read-only * * First Sector Last * Partition Tag Flags Sector Count Sector Mount Directory 0 2 00 0 76320 76319 / 1 3 01 76320 132480 208799 2 5 00 0 828720 828719 5 6 00 208800 131760 340559 /opt 6 4 00 340560 447120 787679 /usr 7 8 00 787680 41040 828719 /export/home example# The data in the Tag column above indicates the type of partition, as follows: Name Number UNASSIGNED 0x00 BOOT 0x01 ROOT 0x02 SWAP 0x03 USR 0x04 BACKUP 0x05 STAND 0x06 VAR 0x07 HOME 0x08 ALTSCTR 0x09 CACHE 0x0a RESERVED 0x0b The data in the Flags column above indicates how the partition is to be mounted, as follows: Name Number MOUNTABLE, READ AND WRITE 0x00 NOT MOUNTABLE 0x01 MOUNTABLE, READ ONLY 0x10 Example 2: Using the prtvtoc Command with the -f Option The following example uses the prtvtoc command with the -f option on a 424-megabyte hard disk: example# prtvtoc -f /dev/rdsk/c0t3d0s2 FREE_START=0 FREE_SIZE=0 FREE_COUNT=0 FREE_PART=34 Example 3: Using the prtvtoc Command on a Disk Over One Terabyte The following example uses uses the prtvtoc command on a disk over one terabyte:. example# prtvtoc /dev/rdsk/c1t1d0s2 * /dev/rdsk/c1t1d0s2 partition map * * Dimensions: * 512 bytes/sector * 3187630080 sectors * 3187630013 accessible sectors * * Flags: * 1: unmountable * 10: read-only * * First Sector Last * Partition Tag Flags Sector Count Sector Mount Directory 0 2 00 34 262144 262177 1 3 01 262178 262144 524321 6 4 00 524322 3187089340 3187613661 8 11 00 3187613662 16384 318763004 ATTRIBUTES
