How to Display Information About SCSI Devices

The following procedure uses SCSI controllers c0 and c1 and the devices that are attached to them as examples of the type of device configuration information that you can display 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.

Become superuser.

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.

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 information 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 procedures, only SCSI attachment points are listed. The attachment points that are displayed on your system depend on your system configuration.
