Dear Regmi,
it's for my own understanding, as well as for those NetApp customer's being die-hard *NIX oriented and desire to understand what's configured in which config file and how.
Stephen C. Losen answered by pointing me in the direction of Chapter 5 of the man pages.
Kind regards, Soren

Would like a list with a description/explanation of the /etc/ files - do you know if there is a such?
What I'm looking for is something that would e.g. explain something like: *** /etc/rc - The /etc/rc file contains commands that the storage system executes at boot time to configure the system. Commands in the /etc/rc file configure the storage system to: - Communicate on your network - Use the NIS and DNS services - Save the core dump that might exist if the storage system panicked before it was booted ***
I can of course begin to dig out the information from NOW, sysadmin guide etc., but would safe a LOT of time if such a list already exist.
