Power On the Server (Oracle ILOM)
The SPARC T4-2 server has one SAS2 RAID controller on the motherboard. This controller is connected to six slots on the disk backplane.
The following table shows the PhyNum-to-disk slot mapping for the six-slot SPARC T4-2 backplane.

The following example is based on a SPARC T4-2 server with six hard drives. These hard drives are deployed as four individual storage devices and a virtual drive that consists of two hard drives configured as a RAID volume. The controller is attached to these devices in the following manner:
Targets 9, d, e, and f (four individual storage devices).
Target 389 (a RAID volume).
Target a (a DVD unit).

In this example, the controller ports are attached to the hard drives and the DVD in the following manner:

Note - Target values are not static. The same storage device can appear in two consecutive probe-scsi-all listings with different Target values.
The default boot device has the following values:
Controller = 0
Target = 9
PhyNum = 0
SASDeviceName = 5000c5001cb4a637
SASAddress = 5000c5001cb4a635
If you want to specify another drive to be the boot device, find its PhyNum value in the output and use the SASDeviceName assigned to that device. For example, if you want to use the hard drive in disk slot 3, it has the following values:
Controller = 0
Target = f
PhyNum = 3
SASDeviceName = 5000c5001cb47f7f
SASAddress = 5000c5001cb47f7d
