Hello,
I am supposed to check the RAID health of a system but when I type metastat it says "there are no existing databases"
Does this mean that there is no RAID configured at all? Is there any other utility I should try?
I know the system has two disks.
Tanks!
Yes it does suggests unless there are any metasets configured.
But as you said there are only two disks, hence I would assume that there is nothing.
Can you post the output of below command.
df -h

df -h doesn't jive on this system for some reason.
This is df -k

That means its Solaris 8 or lower.
As it appears everything is on a single disk c0t1d0.

Thank you for your help... I missed that c0t1d0 indicator!!
but your system can run a hardware raid! depending on the hardware you are using and the configuration.
It might be a long shot, but try this command:
raidctl -S
Looks like raidctl says there are no RAID volumes.
Thanks for the new command (raidctl), I'll find that useful in the future.
yes there is no metadevices.....metastat for SVM raid while raidctl is for hardware raid.....raidctl command shows hardware raid
