They can all be set to the same thing, and are probably all set
to 7 now (normal, and used to be hard-coded on Windows).  The
host id refers to the SCSI id of the card itself on that cards
bus, which is why they can all be the same. Anyway, don't set
your devices to 7, or whatever the host id is set to.

As far as I know, there is no way to tell what the host id is
set to without a reboot, but they probably are all 7 if you
didn't change anything.  NetWorker assumes it is 7 unless you have
set the NSR_SCSIn_ID environment variable to another value, where n
is the SCSI host as determined by the OS (e.g. For
/proc/scsi/aix7xxx/0, n=0).

Sorry there doesn't appear to be a quick answer for you here,
George,
