Java How to get the path during runtime?

Hi guys,

I have commands like
/solaris/opt/VRTS/bin/vxdisk
/opt/VRTS/bin/vxdisk

From these two commands, i need to get the directory path value before /VRTS/bin/vxdisk at runtime.
e.g
/solaris/opt/VRTS/bin/vxdisk as /solaris/opt
/opt/VRTS/bin/vxdisk as /opt

I have tried with cut -d "/" -f1 function. Is there any other solution for this!

Code:
echo '/solaris/opt/VRTS/bin/vxdisk' | sed 's#/VRTS/bin/vxdisk##'
