Format Command Hangs

Hi,

Other day, a guy was running the format command in SunOS 5.8 and he killed the process to end it. Now whenever you try to run format again, it hangs with the message "Searching for disk...".Does anyone know how to fix this problem? Is there a lock file somewhere that I can delete?

The system has 2 internal drives configured and a disk array connected to it that is not configured or partitioned.

Thanks

Check /var/adm/messages* for odd hardware errors, perhaps you could try and run devfsadm -C to clear out any devices that isn't there.. You could also try and truss the format process to determine where it hangs. .7/M.
