NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

     verifyDisk	- verifies disk	surface	and partitions as an option disk

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

     /usr/sysadm/privbin/verifyDisk -d drivetype -c controller number -u unit
     number [ -l LUN]

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     verifyDisk	invokes	fx to perform two verification passes over the disk
     surface, isolate any bad blocks found, and	then partition it as an	option
     disk with all usable space	in one partition, partition 7.	It is
     essentially equivalent to performing the operation	 fx -x -c VERIFY on
     the indicated disk.

	  recognized types can be found	in the fx(1M) man page.	 The types
