[OmniOS-discuss] format doesn't show all disks in the system

[Stephan Budach]

Hi,

I do have two r018 systems, which are equipped with three different 
types of disks. When I run format it doesn't show all of the connected 
disks and leaves out the Intel 3700 SSDs.

However, cfgadm does show the Intel SSDs…

E.g. w50025388a06db530 is one of the Intel SSDs, what doesn't format 
doesnÄt show. What am I missing?

Thanks,
Stephan
