hi.
I'm on solaris 10 X86, and I added a hdd today. I can see it int the bios, but nothing
appears in my solaris' files: vfstab, mnttab...etc.
How could I make solaris detect my new hdd please?
If the device shows up in "iostat -En" or if you see it in the
output of "prtconf -v" then the kernel has detected it. Another
good check is to see whether the '/usr/sbin/format' command
presents it as a selectable device.
You won't see any filesystems mounted from it until you actually
create some on that disk, and then mount them. Once you've got
to that point, you can edit /etc/vfstab as required.
