I am following the HPUX 11.31 install/update guide and I am trying to install "Update-UX" from the installation media. I put the CD into the drive, and I am trying to mount the device. The instructions state:
however I do not see a CDROM device in the results:
The machine is an HP Integrity rx2660. Is one of these devices the cdrom drive? I believe it is supposed to say CD or DVD in the description.
edit: solved. I had to mount the UsbScsiAdaptor as the cdrom device.
how would I search through subdirectories under the current directory and delete all files in certain directories.
in ThisDirectory....
want to go into foundMe directory which there are several in other subdirectories and delete all files in foundMe ?
thank you... (1 Reply)
I'm running solaris 2.5.1. My main development server is DEAD, i can't even boot off the cdrom, it powers up, acts like it is starting the boot process but then says cannot find boot device. I've done the search here on this site and saw the other posts, but at the ok prompt it won't even let me... (3 Replies)
Hi all,
I am looking at a MC cluster comprised of 2 nodes. There is a package named backup which does nothing more than mount a VG.
At one point we noticed errors in syslog that look like this:
cmclconfd: Could not access device file /dev/dsk/c20t0d0: No such file or directory
There are... (1 Reply)
Hi,
I've seen similar posts on this board about ejecting CDROMs but I've tried the solutions people suggested but still cannot eject the CD. It's stuck in a production box so I can't reboot it...

Hello, I have a problem on my backup server. I lost my system hdd and my separate ZIL device while the system crashs and now I'm in trouble. The old system was running under the least version of osol/dev (snv_134) with zfs v22.
After the server crashs I was very optimistic of solving the problems... (2 Replies)

volfs - Volume Management file system
DESCRIPTION
volfs is the Volume Management file system rooted at root_dir. The default location for root-dir is /vol, but this can be overridden using
the -d option of vold (see vold(1M)). This file system is maintained by the Volume Management daemon, vold, and will be considered to be
/vol for this description.
Media can be accessed in a logical manner (no association with a particular piece of hardware), or a physical manner (associated with a
particular piece of hardware).
Logical names for media are referred to through /vol/dsk and /vol/rdsk. /vol/dsk provides block access to random access devices. /vol/rdsk
provides character access to random access devices.
The /vol/rdsk and /vol/dsk directories are mirrors of one another. Any change to one is reflected in the other immediately. The dev_t for a
volume will be the same for both the block and character device.
The default permissions for /vol are mode=0555, owner=root, group=sys. The default permissions for /vol/dsk and /vol/rdsk are mode=01777,
owner=root, group=sys.
Physical references to media are obtained through /vol/dev. This hierarchy reflects the structure of the /dev name space. The default per-
missions for all directories in the /vol/dev hierarchy are mode=0555, owner=root, group=sys.
mkdir(2), rmdir(2), unlink(2) (rm), symlink(2) (ln -s), link(2) (ln), and rename(2) (mv) are supported, subject to normal file and direc-
tory permissions.
The following system calls are not supported in the /vol filesystem: creat(2), only when creating a file, and mknod(2).
If the media does not contain file systems that can be automatically mounted by rmmount(1M), users can gain access to the media through the
following /vol locations:
+-----------------------------------+------------------------------------+
| Location | State of Media |
+-----------------------------------+------------------------------------+
|/vol/dev/diskette0/unnamed_floppy | formatted unnamed floppy-block |
| | device access |
+-----------------------------------+------------------------------------+
|/vol/dev/rdiskette0/unnamed_floppy | formatted unnamed floppy-raw |
| | device access |
+-----------------------------------+------------------------------------+
|/vol/dev/diskette0/unlabeled | unlabeled floppy-block device |
| | access |
+-----------------------------------+------------------------------------+
|/vol/dev/rdiskette0/unlabeled | unlabeled floppy-raw device access |
+-----------------------------------+------------------------------------+
|/vol/dev/dsk/c0t6/unnamed_cdrom | CD-ROM-block device access |
+-----------------------------------+------------------------------------+
|/vol/dev/rdsk/c0t6/unnamed_cdrom | CD-ROM-raw device access |
+-----------------------------------+------------------------------------+
For more information on the location of CD-ROM and floppy media, see System Administration Guide: Basic Administration or rmmount(1M).
Partitions
Some media support the concept of a partition. If the label identifies partitions on the media, the name of the media becomes a directory
with partitions under it. Only valid partitions are represented. Partitions cannot be moved out of a directory.
For example, if disk volume 'foo' has three valid partitions, 0, 2, and 5, then:
/vol/dsk/foo/s0
/vol/dsk/foo/s2
/vol/dsk/foo/s5
for block access and
/vol/rdsk/foo/s0
/vol/rdsk/foo/s2
/vol/rdsk/foo/s5
for character access.
If a volume is relabeled to reflect different partitions, the name space changes to reflect the new partition layout.
A format program can check to see if there are others with the volume open and not allow the format to occur if it is. Volume Management,
however, does not explicitly prevent the rewriting of a label while others have the volume open. If a partition of a volume is open, and
the volume is relabeled to remove that partition, it will appear exactly as if the volume were missing. A notify event will be generated
and the user may cancel the operation with volcancel(1), if desired.
