How to Display Configuration Information for all Devices

SCSI controllers c0 and c1 and the devices attached to them provide examples of the type of device configuration information that can be displayed with the cfgadm command.


Note -

If the SCSI device is not supported by the cfgadm command, it does not display in the cfgadm command output.


  1. Become superuser.

  2. Display information about attachment points on the system.


    # cfgadm -l
    Ap_Id                Type         Receptacle   Occupant     Condition
    c0                   scsi-bus     connected    configured   unknown
    c1                   scsi-bus     connected    configured   unknown

    In this example, c0 and c1 represent two SCSI controllers.

  3. Display information about a system's SCSI controllers and their attached devices.


    # cfgadm -al 
    Ap_Id                Type         Receptacle   Occupant     Condition
    c0                   scsi-bus     connected    configured   unknown
    c0::dsk/c0t0d0       disk         connected    configured   unknown
    c0::rmt/0            tape         connected    configured   unknown
    c1                   scsi-bus     connected    configured   unknown
    c1::dsk/c1t3d0       disk         connected    configured   unknown
    c1::dsk/c1t4d0       unavailable  connected    unconfigured unknown

    Note -

    The cfgadm -l commands displays info about SCSI HBAs but not SCSI devices. Use the cfgadm -al command to display information about SCSI devices such as disk and tapes.


In the following examples, only SCSI attachment points are listed. The attachment points displayed on your system will depend on your system configuration.
