SUMMARY-format.dat needed for DEC DSP-3107LS disk
As expected, Sun-Managers comes through. A couple people pointed me at
scsiinfo for this information, a couple sent actual format.dat entries. It
was a good thing I got them to, since scsiinfo gave me a bogus ncyl value.
(It was greater than the pcyl value!) The value of pcyl-acyl that scsiinfo
gave matched up with the format.dat values I got from the responders. So
far, everything is running fine. The values I'm using are appended at the
end. Thanks to the following Sun managers for their speedy responses.

    ulla@dmi.min.dk (Ulla Fischer)
    Eckhard.Rueggeberg@ts.go.dlr.de (Eckhard Rueggeberg)
    m1cxn01@frb.gov (Chandrasekhar Nagasundaram)
    steve@seaspace.com (Steve Clemons)
    Dan Stromberg - OAC-DCS <strombrg@bingy.acs.uci.edu>

/etc/format.dat entry:

disk_type = "DEC DSP3107LS" \
        : ctlr = SCSI : fmt_time = 3 \
        : trks_zone = 8 : atrks = 0 : asect = 8 \
        : ncyl = 3115 : acyl = 2 : pcyl = 3117 : nhead = 8 : nsect = 83 \
        : rpm = 5400 : bpt = 48804

partition = "DEC DSP3107LS" \
        : disk = "DEC DSP3107LS" : ctlr = SCSI \
        : c = 0, 2068360
