The FIX !!! :


1) ls /etc/fdmns/*
2) showfdmn root_domain
3) See the advfs man page for more info. <<<<<( I feel stupid that I didnt
do this one first)
4) ls /etc/fdmns/root_domain

5) do an ls -l in the directory /etc/fdmns/root_domain.  This
will show you the first device in that domain.
6) ls -lR /etc/fdmns
   # cd /etc/fdmns
   # showfdmn * (this should show you the devices for all the AdvFS domains)
7) % ls -l /etc/fdmns/usr_domain
        lrwxr-xr-x   1 root     system   9 Jun 19 17:45 rz0h -> /dev/rz0h
8) The command is
# showfsets root_domain#root
Other commands
# showfdmn
# vncheck
# showfile
9... And many more similar responses !

I think that Dec might be on to something with this advfs stuff !

Thank you all  for the quick and informative answers !!!  I have received
probably 20 responses !!

I was looking in the wrong place for answers (bookreader ugh!)

Thanks again !!!!
