On solaris 8, it says you should use devfsadm, rather than drvconfig (I think it less likely to cause system hangs)

on sol8 drvconfig is a link to devfsadm. &nbsp;After any hardware change, either boot the machine using &quot;-r&quot; flag, or boot normally and run devfsadm.

I have a Solaris Ultra-10, with Solaris 5.8 and I want to add another harddisc to the system.<br />

Add a disk to an existing system

Unix is a multitasking, multi-user computer operating system originally developed in 1969 at Bell Labs. Today, it is a modern OS with many commercial flavors and licensees, including FreeBSD, Hewlett-Packard’s UX, IBM AIX and Apple Mac OS-X. Apart from its command-line interface, most UNIX variations support the standardized X Window System for GUIs, with the exception of the Mac OS, which uses a proprietary system.
