Purpose of /stand/bootconf file?

[dictum9]

Question, does this filem, which lists primary and mirror disks, exist on both PA-RISC and Itanium machines?

Hi:

As for the purpose of '/stand/bootconf', see the manpages for 'bootconf(4)':

Hi etc,
For primary & mirror disks,please have a look on the following:

1 -->The boot area is on an LVM root disk:

# Boot Device configuration file
# This file contains information regarding the location
# of the boot LIF. It is used by the KERN-RUN fileset to
# update the boot kernel.
l /dev/dsk/c2t7d0

2-->The system has LVM mirroring on root (the device files indicate that the system is running on a 9.0 release being prepared for updating to 10.0):

# Boot Device configuration file
# This file contains information regarding the location
# of the boot LIF. It is used by the KERN-RUN fileset to
# update the boot kernel.
l /dev/dsk/c1d0s2
l /dev/dsk/c4d0s2
l /dev/dsk/c5d0s2
Please,check this also.
