Finding the Status of Existing SCSI Bus Addresses
Before you install a new SCSI driv
e, to ensure that the SCSI bus address of
your device is currently unused, you can use SAM, or y
ou can use the
ioscan
to ol to help determine whic
h devices are currently connected. To determine the
currently connected SCSI bus IDs, en
ter the following command line:
/etc/ioscan -fb
The result will be a displa
y of information, such as the follo wing:
Class H/W Path Driver H/W Status S/W Status Description
=========================================================================
...
disk 2.0.1.2.0 scsi ok(0x5800101) ok TOSHIBA CD-ROM
tape_drive 2.0.1.3.0 scsitape ok(0x1800202) ok HP HP35450A
disk 2.0.1.6.0 scsi ok(0x101) ok MICROP 1528
...
For example, the SCSI bus address for the \MICR
OP" disk device is in the
fourth column of its hardware address as \
6
"(
2.0.1.
6
.0
). If you were
installing another disk, for le system use, it would b est be accessed at the
adjacent SCSI bus address in the \scanning" order, \
5
". SAM would help you
determine where to put it when you did the installation.
