Answer / rathnasekaran.r(tcs,chennai)
Size depends on default files defined for homedirectory
which is under /etc/skel
-rw-r--r-- 1 root sys 136 Apr 12 2005
local.cshrc
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 167 Apr 12 2005
local.login
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 184 Apr 12 2005
local.profile
Sometimes we should get 24 blocks created ,

Answer / megastar chiru
64blocks mean to create min size of your home directory. it
is depend on your way of add/creating user.
/usr/sbin/useradd -u xx -g xy -m /export/home/useryy -s
/bin/sh -k /etc/skel useryy will give you 64 blocks output
/user/sbin/useradd useryy ---> this will also add/create a
user with defaults. mean without home directory. in passwd
file will show you default home directory of the user. but
you can't place any files on it. but first syntax we can
create/save files.

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.
