Checking RAID health, metastat returns "no database"

Hello,
I am supposed to check the RAID health of a system but when I type metastat it says "there are no existing databases"

Does this mean that there is no RAID configured at all? Is there any other utility I should try?
I know the system has two disks.

Tanks!

Yes it does suggests unless there are any metasets configured.

But as you said there are only two disks, hence I would assume that there is nothing.

Can you post the output of below command.
Code:
 
df -h

Regards
Vishal

df -h doesn't jive on this system for some reason.

This is df -k
Code:

That means its Solaris 8 or lower.

As it appears everything is on a single disk c0t1d0.

but your system can run a hardware raid! depending on the hardware you are using and the configuration.

It might be a long shot, but try this command:
Code:
raidctl -S
