The CONFIGURE command adds new devices to the current configuration. DISCUTIL can use the device after it has been configured. If the device is a disk, DISCUTIL tries to mount it. DISCUTIL automatically configures the system console, the tape drive, and all master and member disks that were mounted at the time of the failure.
