         devnm - device name

   SYNOPSIS
         /usr/sbin/devnm [name...  ]

   DESCRIPTION
         The devnm command identifies the special file associated with the

   EXAMPLE
         The command:

         produces:
               /dev/dsk/c1d0s2 /usr
         if /usr is mounted on /dev/dsk/c1d0s2.
