NAME

devnm − device name

SYNOPSIS

/etc/devnm [names]

DESCRIPTION

devnm identifies the special file associated with the mounted file system where the argument name resides.  (As a special case, both the block device name and the swap device name are printed for the argument name / if swapping is done on the same disk section as the root file system.)  Argument names must be full path names. 

This command is most commonly used by /etc/rc (see brc(1M)) to construct a mount table entry for the root device. 

EXAMPLE

The command:

/etc/devnm /usr

produces

dsk/0s1 /usr

if /usr is mounted on /dev/dsk/0s1. 

FILES

/dev/dsk/∗
/etc/mtab
