Determining Controllers

[Michael42]

Hello, we received a Sun 280r with Solaris 8 on it. Is there a command I can issue to show all the SCSI disk controllers?

Thanks, Michael

/usr/sbin/`uname -i`/sbin/prtdiag will list all of the recognised devices, including IO cards at the end. Is that enough? Annihilannic.

 

[Annihilannic]

/usr/platform/`uname -i`/sbin/prtdiag is what I meant to type. ;-) Annihilannic.

Annihilannic , thanks for the quick response. If I read this right it looks like 2 disk controllers.

Can you help me confirm this?

Thanks again,

Looks like it to me, though I've no experience of this particular hardware. Annihilannic.

Thanks again Annihilannic Michael

You can use this command : # cfgadm to check the scsi controller.Or you can use probe-scsi or probe-scsi all.
May this few command can help you.
What you have done from prtdiag. I can see memory slot and pci slot but not scsi controller.
Good Luck

Folks,

I don't believe the Sun-Fire-280R come with scsi disk controllers; the internal disks are fibre channel. Try using probe-facl.

The 280R has fibre channel disks but it does have a SCSI controller. There is a SCSI connector on the back to connect external devices.

The info that the 280R has fibre channel disks but it does have an internal SCSI controller was VERY useful.

Thanks again guys! Michael
