How to count total HDD size of disk?
Hi,

I am trying to fetch total HDD size through command line on solaris machine:
Code:
 
bash-3.2# iostat -E
sd0       Soft Errors: 0 Hard Errors: 0 Transport Errors: 0
Vendor: VMware   Product: Virtual disk     Revision: 1.0  Serial No:
Size: 42.95GB <42949672448 bytes>
Media Error: 0 Device Not Ready: 0 No Device: 0 Recoverable: 0
Illegal Request: 3 Predictive Failure Analysis: 0
sd1       Soft Errors: 0 Hard Errors: 0 Transport Errors: 0
Vendor: NECVMWar Product: VMware IDE CDR10 Revision: 1.00 Serial No:
Size: 0.00GB <0 bytes>
Media Error: 0 Device Not Ready: 0 No Device: 0 Recoverable: 0
Illegal Request: 4 Predictive Failure Analysis: 0

is iostat command is the best way to grab the Total HDD space allocated for any machine or there is any other command/script by which we can get this information

10 years ago iostat -E was the best command.
Have not met a better command since.
