Find scsi adapters with prtconf? 1

[dmjoen]

I am a Solaris beginner, and I would like to determine the number and specs of all scsi adapters on my system. I gather that prtconf is probably the command I want, but I need some help deciphering the output.

Thanks

from single user mode...

probe-scsi-all

im not sure how detailed that information will be...but it does let you know all scsi devices seen...if you have something attached that is NOT seen..try boot -r to reconfigure the kernel....does that help at all?

oh and to answer matt's question..
is it a 10 gig seagate?

good luck!!

Close, but do not be fooled by the &quot;9954&quot;:
'ST118273FSUN18G' says it is a 18GB Seagate


If You use Solaris 8 (newer than 10/01) you can
do the following without reboot:
devfsadm -C
to throw out all your not used drivers and then try
devfsadm [Options]
to re-attach all drivers for whatever HW you have.
No reboot necessary anymore

Have fun

cool!!..hey..so what does the 9954 indicate?

just wondering

[mattrumik]

ok, clarification:
probe-scsi
probe-scsi-all
probe-ide
will show you ALL HW attached;
if you can not see it there, you NEVER will see it under OS.
Therefore, if the result at boot-prompt is not as desired,
forget boot -r, it won't find the device.

So, first check probe-xxxxx
if it is not there, change cable, SCSI-ID etc
try again, check again, try again .....

then do a boot -r
(unless you did touch /reconfigure before shutdown)
or a normal boot and do devfsadm and everything what
you have seen at boot-prompt should be there except
those you have not yet installed the correct driver.

The 9954 is &quot;revision-id&quot; of HW-driver: not too usefull

name <port-wwn> length <8> value <0x2100002037200388>.
name <node-wwn> length <8> value <0x2000002037200388>.
the World-Wide-Numbers are important in Multipathing
and especially FC device setups.

that's it

Usually I find the information printed by /usr/platform/`uname -i`/sbin/prtdiag more useful than prtconf. Annihilannic.
