disk command

Does anyone know a command in solaris that shows

all disk space, ie how big the installed disks are
all SAN storage devices


All i want is a command that outputs the server config with number of disk, size and san stroage.

i am a solaris admin i have done the followinf but none really help

getdev
cfgadm -la
prtconf

I want to halt the system and go into the probe and run a

proble-scsi-all

but i really dont want to halt a production server.

can u help ?

Are you wanting used as well as unused disks so that a simple df -k won't suffice?

prtvtoc will give you dimensions of /dev/rdsk/<some device>

Unless I'm missing something, I think you outta just run the format command. It will list every physical disk your system sees, although if you have multipathing on your SAN some will show up multiple times (one for each path). If it is a known disk type it will show the size of each as well.
