Friends,
i have used the following code to get the number of disks in solaris
echo | pfexec format | egrep -v "Searching|AVAILABLE|Specify|^$|@" | wc -l
is there a better way to get the same result
/etc/mnttab has all of the mounted volumes and devices as well as /proc and /dev/fd
cd /proc
bash-3.00# ls
0 118 12926 13537 17128 18485 2 217 23168 304 355 426 665 897 97

from what I see, you have one physical disk, three slices of which is being used in /, /var, /export/home mountpoints
also - try to use format command
iostat -En
is commonly use to get disk information on Solaris.
this works well:
format < /dev/null | grep c[1-9]
and you get the list of disks already numbered for you.
