How to differ local disks from attached from storage ones?
Hello.
I have a solaris box with several local disks and several come from SYMMETRIX storage. Is there any way to tell format (or other util) to show only local disks?

So this will show your local disks:
Code:
cfgadm -al c0 | grep disk

It shows me two disks
Code:
cfgadm -la c0 |grep disk
c0::dsk/c0t0d0                 disk         connected    configured   unknown
c0::dsk/c0t1d0                 disk         connected    configured   unknown

But format shows some disks on c2 which are definitely not from storage. Why?

Code:
echo |format
Searching for disks...done
