GETDISKPARTS(1M)                                              GETDISKPARTS(1M)



NAME
     getDiskParts - gets a disk's partition information

SYNOPSIS
     /usr/sysadm/privbin/getDiskParts -d special file

DESCRIPTION
     getDiskParts reads the disk's volume header and returns, for each
     partition, its number, type, start location, and size.

     The getDiskParts privcmd is used by Tasks which need to read partition
     information, since root permission is required to read the disk's volume
     header.

OPTIONS
     -d special file
          The special file under /dev/rdsk that represents the disk.
