Step 4: Check the
disk.type
file 2
The
olds
commands, which you will be using to configure the
Solstice
DiskSuite
software, obtain information about your disk configuration from
the
/olds/disk.type
file. If your boot disks are not as specified in the
Disks
table in Step 2, check the
disk.type
file to verify that it names the proper
boot disks for your system.
The relevant portion of the
disk.type
file looks like this:
The
bootdisk1
column designates the first boot disk; the
disk2
column
designates the second boot disk in a mirrored configuration. In order for
the
olds
commands to work, the
disks.type
file must match your physical
configuration: you must have disks in the locations specified in the file.

the Delete key as a backspace.
