The procedure described below is intended for SPARC T3-1 and SPARC T3-4 servers in a single-initiator, eight-disk backplane configuration.

The remaining steps in this example will identify the physical slot that corresponds to the device name c0t5000CCA00ABBAEB8d0.
Device Minor Nodes: dev=(32,0) dev_path=/scsi_vhci/disk@g5000cca00abbaeb8:a spectype=blk type=minor dev_link=/dev/dsk/c0t5000CCA00ABBAEB8d0s0 <<=== Device path dev_link=/dev/sd3a dev_path=/scsi_vhci/disk@g5000cca00abbaeb8:a,raw spectype=chr type=minor dev_link=/dev/rdsk/c0t5000CCA00ABBAEB8d0s0 <<=== Device path dev_link=/dev/rsd3a
Note the obp-path value listed under WWN 5000cca00abbaeb8.
Refer to the following table to find the controller.
|
For SPARC T3-1 servers,the controller is identified in the second field: pci@1 = controller 0 and pci@2 = controller 1.
For SPARC T3-4 servers, the controller is identified in the first field. For systems with a four-processor configuration, pci@400 = controller 0 and pci@700 = controller 1. For systems with a two-processor configuration, pci@400 = controller 0 and pci@500 = controller 1.
The following output example shows the obp-path for a SPARC T3-1 server.
Paths from multipath bus adapters: mpt_sas#5 (online) name=’wwn’ type=string items=1 value=’5000cca00abbaeb8’ <<=== Hard drive WWN ID name=’lun’ type=int items=1 value=00000000 name=’target-port’ type=string items=1 value=’5000cca00abbaeb9’ <<=== Hard drive Target ID name=’obp-path’ type=string items=1 value=’/pci@400/pci@1/pci@0/pci@4/scsi@0/disk@w5000cca00abbaeb9,0’ name=’phy-num’ type=int items=1 value=00000000 name=’path-class’ type=string items=1 value=’primary’
In this SPARC T3-1 example, the obp-path is:
/pci@400/pci@1/pci@0/pci@4/scsi@0/disk@w5000cca00abbaeb9,0
Based on the previous table, this disk is on controller 0.
The following output example shows the obp-path for a SPARC T3-4 server.
Paths from multipath bus adapters: mpt_sas#5 (online) name=’wwn’ type=string items=1 value=’5000cca00abbaeb8’ <<=== Hard drive WWN ID name=’lun’ type=int items=1 value=00000000 name=’target-port’ type=string items=1 value=’5000cca00abbaeb9’ <<=== Hard drive Target ID name=’obp-path’ type=string items=1 value=’/pci@400/pci@1/pci@0/LSI,sas@0/disk@w5000cca00abbaeb9,0’ name=’phy-num’ type=int items=1 value=00000000 name=’path-class’ type=string items=1 value=’primary’
In this SPARC T3-4 example, the obp-path is:
/pci@400/pci@1/pci@0/pci@0/LSI,sas@0/disk@w5000cca00abbaeb9,0
Based on the previous table, this disk is on controller 0.
