Right - father down the verify under analyze is bad - sorry and you are
correct on both accounts.

	Look under the "analyze" menu, where the original poster was
attempting to
	test the disk:

	ANALYZE MENU:
	        read     - read only test   (doesn't harm SunOS)
	        refresh  - read then write  (doesn't harm data)
	        test     - pattern testing  (doesn't harm data)
	        write    - write then read      (corrupts data)
	        compare  - write, read, compare (corrupts data)
	        purge    - write, read, write   (corrupts data)
	        verify   - write entire disk, then verify (corrupts data)
	        print    - display data buffer
	        setup    - set analysis parameters
	        config   - show analysis parameters
	        !<cmd>   - execute <cmd> , then return
	        quit

	sformat is much superior in the area of SCSI disk repair, though.
