How to list the contents of the EFI directory on hp-ux IPF systems?

First find the default boot device using the setboot command
# setboot
Primary bootpath : 0/4/1/0.0.0.7.0
HA Alternate bootpath : 0/0/2/0
Alternate bootpath : 0/4/1/0.0.0.6.0
Autoboot is ON (enabled)#


Find the corresponding dirver for the Hardware path using ioscan
# ioscan -funC disk

disk 39 0/4/1/0.0.0.6.0 sdisk CLAIMED DEVICE HP DG146ABAB4
/dev/dsk/c17t6d0 /dev/dsk/c17t6d0s2 /dev/rdsk/c17t6d0 /dev/rdsk/c17t6d0s2
/dev/dsk/c17t6d0s1 /dev/dsk/c17t6d0s3 /dev/rdsk/c17t6d0s1 /dev/rdsk/c17t6d0s3
disk 40 0/4/1/0.0.0.7.0 sdisk CLAIMED DEVICE HP DG146ABAB4
/dev/dsk/c17t7d0 /dev/dsk/c17t7d0s2 /dev/rdsk/c17t7d0 /dev/rdsk/c17t7d0s2
/dev/dsk/c17t7d0s1 /dev/dsk/c17t7d0s3 /dev/rdsk/c17t7d0s1 /dev/rdsk/c17t7d0s3

List the contents of EFI shell.This can be useful to compare root and root mirror disks.

Sudoers file on Solaris 10

sudo is available from the SFWsudo package on Solaris 10.
To use it a /etc/sudoers file has been set but still leading to the following error

user NOT in sudoers

Hopefully, truss will help :-)

root@server:/# truss -o /tmp/output sudo ls

The /tmp/output file is answering the enigma:

root@server:/# grep sudoers /tmp/output
lstat("/opt/sfw/etc/sudoers", 0xFFBFFB28) = 0
open("/opt/sfw/etc/sudoers", O_RDONLY) = 4

The sudoers file to edit is in /opt/sfw/etc
