When analyzing probe-scsi-all output, look for this SAS device information:
SASDeviceName -- This is the WWN that the Oracle Solaris OS recognizes.
SASAddress -- This is the WWN that the OBP recognizes.
PhyNum -- This is a hexadecimal value that identifies the port that a disk is connected to.
VolumeDeviceName -- When a RAID volume has been configured, this is the RAID volume WWN value recognized by the Oracle Solaris OS.
VolumeWWID -- When a RAID volume has been configured, this is the RAID volume WWN value referenced by OBP.
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.
