Others have mentioned mmlsdnsd -m and -X

Keep in mind that if you have multiple NSD servers in the cluster, there
is *no* guarantee that the names for a device will be consistent across
the servers, or across reboots.  And when multipath is involved, you may
have 4 or 8 or even more names for the same device....
