[HPADM] sdsadmin ?



WE are trying to use disks > 2G on HP-UX 9.05. We found a HOWTO on the web
that referes to running sdsadmin. If I understand teh note coretly, it
implies that we can use this to create an /etc/disktab entry for the dis we
are trying to use. Specifically it says to run:

sdsadmin -m -C <filename> /dev/dsk/xxxxxx

But when I try this, I get an error message about there being no entry in
/etc/disktab for the disk. Now this command is able to corectly indetfy the
disk's physical model etc. The 9.05 machines don't have man pages, and my
10.20 machines don't have a man page for this command.

Can anyone enlighten me on this ancient bit of history?
