Solaris also has "find /export -mount -ls" displaying inode on the front, so you can identify the file name from the inode #, if it is still linked to any dir. (slow, but . . . .).
And if you think it is being written, there is "truss -wall -p" to show you what it is writing.

NAME
ffind - Finds the name of the file or directory using a given inode
SYNOPSIS
ffind [-aduvV] [-f fstype] [-i imgtype] [-o imgoffset] [-b dev_sector_size] image inode
DESCRIPTION
ffind finds the names of files or directories that are allocated to inode on disk image image. By default it only will only return the
first name it finds. With some file systems, this will find deleted file names.
ARGUMENTS
image [images]
One (or more if split) disk or partition images whose format is given with '-i'.
inode Integer of inode to find.
The optional arguments are:
-a Find all occurrences of inode.
-d Find deleted entries only.
-f fstype
Identify the file system type of the image. Use '-f list' to list the supported file system types. If not given, autodetection
methods are used.
-u Find undeleted entries only.
-i imgtype
Identify the type of image file, such as raw or split. Use '-i list' to list the supported types. If not given, autodetection
methods are used.
-o imgoffset
The sector offset where the file system starts in the image.
-b dev_sector_size
The size, in bytes, of the underlying device sectors. If not given, the value in the image format is used (if it exists) or
512-bytes is assumed.
-v Verbose output to stderr.
-V Display version.
This program searches all directory entries looking for the given inode. This is useful when an inode has been identified from a disk unit
address using ifind(1).
EXAMPLE
# ffind -a image 212
