Re: devices and location code question in aix

The bulk of your disks are SSA, so you are looking at the logical disks
(hdisk) assignments. Try running
lsdev -Cc pdisk
to see the physical disk locations. They are also identified as part of
a specific drawer. Are they internal to your device (some internal SSA
slots/sixpacks) or is there a D40 style drawer in your rack or a T40
sitting along side?
If you want to know which pdisk matches which hdisk, try this shell
(ksh)
for i in `lsdev -CS1 -c pdisk -F name`
do
print -n "$i: "
/usr/sbin/ssaxlate -l $i
done
(on the lsdev command, the S1 flag means State-Available)
If you just want to know where a particular ssa disk is, run the
ssaidentify command, which will flash the light on the drive
ssaidentify -lpdisk9 -y (or -n to turn off)
If you are looking to identify what 11-08 or 40-60 means, you need to
tell us what class of machine you are using. Each RS/6000 has slightly
different identification schemes for the bus, and knowing which adapter
is which is predicated on knowing the model type of the server.
I do hope that was helpful, though.

Below is output of an "lsdev" command in AIX. Anyone have any good
documentation or can someone sum up for me how to physically locate
these
disks/adapters physically in the system by these location codes in this
output. Can anyone make sense out of this. I am mainly interested in PCI
readings for obvious reasons. Any input would be appreciated thanks!
