probe-scsi-all Output Example (SPARC T3-1, Sixteen-Disk Backplane)

When analyzing probe-scsi-all output, look for this SAS device information:

The following table shows the PhyNum-to-disk slot correspondence for a sixteen-disk backplane connected to onboard SAS controllers 0 and 1.


Note - The default 16-disk backplane configuration is divided into two logically isolated zones, with disk slots 0-7 visible to SAS controller 0 and disk slots 8-15 visible to SAS controller 1.

The following example illustrates probe-scsi-all output for a SPARC T3-1 server with nine hard drives in a sixteen-disk capable backplane configuration.


Note - Controller 1 manages the SATA DVD.


The default boot location (physical slot 0) is listed as PhyNum 0 in the SAS controller 0 section. It has a SASDeviceName value of 5000cca00a59278c and a SASAddress value of 5000cca00a59278d.
