[hobbit] bb-prtdiag.sh - Sun SPARC Enterprise M9000 Server

Look through the script and make sure it is calling the same path you do
when you manually run prtdiag.  I have had issues with uname -i resolution
on some hardware (sun4u vs sun4us on fujitsu hardware running solaris.)

You can echo out the critical vars to a file when it runs to see what gets
set.  Think script debugging to output files.

BTW - for the group - I have been working on the meta probe Galen wrote
originally for my environment - I got it to go yellow on resyncs of the
mirrors (SDS mirrored system volumes and some soft partitions),  Today I got
it to look for orphan meta devices,  singletons that are not mounted, that
would signal a broken mirror.  I chose to look for singletons, as mirrors
can be 3 way or more.  I set a yellow and tell the viewer of a possible
broken mirror , then list the single devices.  I am thinking of putting in
an exclusion file, so if a device is known and wanted to be this way for
whatever purpose - it could be listed as an ignore.

Any thoughts of other functions the Meta might look for?  (we use default 2
way mirroring in SDS (aka SVM) so that I know best!

something is wrong when I cant see anything wrong?
 
The M9000 has not explicitly been added for support.
 
Check the readme with the bb-prtdiag tar file for how to run the built in
debug.
There is also information in the comment section at the top of the script.
 
Support for UltraAX-i2 has been added, run debug to find out why/where it is
complaining.
 
>bb-prtdiag is a very simple test. It looks at the return code of the
prtdiag command.
No.  bb-prtdiag does not look at the return code from running prtdiag.  If
you want a simple prtdiag check there is another one on deadcat.
