So, interesting development...  Due to lack of OHMP on solaris 11, we
decided to abandon solaris 11 and downgrade to solaris 10 until such time as
sol11 will hopefully eventually support it...  So now the OHMP is installed
on sol10...

I first built the system using a 2-disk mirror, and tested OHMP in that
configuration.  It all looked good.  Then I added the other 10 disks, and
now things don't look so good...

So I'm back to the drawing board again.  How can I locate a particular
physical disk based on its device name, and vice-versa?

Historically I've done a loop of dd for a second, sleep for a second,
repeat.  But this is far from ideal or foolproof.  I'd like a better way...
Either a map, or a blinking orange light, or something like that.

I have also tried and failed to disable multipath by editing
/kernel/drv/fp.conf

Thanks....
