NSSMU allows you to view the following information about each device:

Partitioning type |
Specifies if the DOS or GPT partitioning scheme is used to format the device. A device that is not partitioned is reported as Uninitialized. A device that contains a non-mirrored Novell Cluster Services split-brain detector (SBD) partition is typically formatted as MS-DOS. A device that contains a mirrored SBD partition has a partition type of NA (not applicable) because it is a RAID 1 device. Values:
