I have Symantec Veritas. I have solaris installation cd, i can send you the realease i have when i get the information.
I´m gonna get: Solaris version (uname -X), df -k, mount -p, and some veritas information (hastatus etc). Is it ok?, do you need some other information to guide me?. Which tool i can use, i saw something like flarcreate, ufsdum, or vxdump, and i see some command like dd ....... What do you have in mind?
