Viewing the Solaris Volume Manager Configuration

---

Tip - The metastat command does not sort output. Pipe the output of the metastat -p command to the sort or grep commands for a more manageable listing of your configuration.

How to View the Solaris Volume Manager Volume Configuration

• To view the volume configuration, use one of the following methods:

  • From the Enhanced Storage tool within the Solaris Management Console, open the Volumes node. For more information, see the online help.

  • Use the following form of the metastat command:

    # metastat -p -i component-name

    -p

    Specifies to show output in a condensed summary. This output is suitable for use in creating the md.tab file.

    -i

    Specifies to verify that RAID-1 (mirror) volumes, RAID-5 volumes, and hot spares can be accessed.

    component-name

    Specifies the name of the volume to view. If no volume name is specified, a complete list of components is displayed.
