Hi I wanted to know what command can I use to perform a rescan in Solaris10

Hi

I wanted to know what command can I use to perform a rescan
in Solaris10 u4/u5 64 bit machine.

I know once the disks are added we can perform a rescan
using the following commands

drvconfig-->disks--> cfgadm

OR

devfsadm

But they will detect the disks and once the disks are remove
the entries are still shown unless the disks are removed.

So is there another command or a script that could help me
find that disks were removed from my solaris machine.

Hello Everyone, One of our servers is showing a strange issue, let me paste the output Code: root # uptime 4:37pm 3 users, load average: 0.00, 0.04, 0.04 Its been running since months but you can see after time there isn't any output like up 191 days(s). Even the who command with b and r option isn't giving any output. Code: root # who -b root # root # who -r root # the date command displays correct output. I am not sure but is it because someone has played with utmpx and wtmpx files, is reboot the only solution we have. Can anyone help us since we don't intend to reboot the server for such a reason and also no one has complained till yet.
