[gllug] iostat

[Steve Nelson]

Hello Chums,

A question that has arisen from something I read on the linixmanagers list.

A chap was asking about finding the serial number of a disk.

On Solaris this is easy:

[nelsost1 at isasecdb nelsost1]$ iostat -En
c1t0d0          Soft Errors: 0 Hard Errors: 0 Transport Errors: 0
Vendor: SEAGATE  Product: ST318305LSUN18G  Revision: 0340 Serial No:

Media Error: 0 Device Not Ready: 184 No Device: 0 Recoverable: 0
Illegal Request: 0 Predictive Failure Analysis: 0

Linux iostat doesn't appear to do this, and I don't see anything in
the manual page which looks like a differently named switch with the
same functionality.

Any ideas how to do this?
