Special Forums Hardware Filesystems, Disks and Memory Pointing one hard drive name to another disk Post 76061 by RTM on Friday 24th of June 2005 09:50:14 AM

Sounds as if there was a soft or hard link - but from what I'm not sure from the information you gave.

I've never seen a link from going from a disk to a disk the way you state it. Post some more info such as:
Solaris version
Better info on what exactly s2d9 AND s2d11 are - is it a partition, directory, disk device file?

If you are mounting a partition on a disk as s2d11, then the output of df -k should have /s2d11 in it which points to the particular slice on a disk. You should be able to just use the ln command to set up a soft link
ln -s /s2d11 /s2d9
