Sun Microsystems 806-2989-10 manual Connect the adapter and slot, Configure the adapter and slot

Now the system is also aware of the usable devices which reside on the adapter and all devices may be mounted or configured to be used.

If the command fails to connect and configure the adapter and slot (the status should be shown as “configured” and “ok”), do the connection and configuration as separate steps:

a.Connect the adapter and slot:

#cfgadm -v -c connect sysctrl#:slot#

The states and conditions for a connected attachment point should be:

Receptacle state—Connected

Occupant state—Unconfigured

Condition—OK

Now the system is aware of the adapter, but not the usable devices which reside on the adapter. Temperature is monitored and power and cooling affect the attachment point condition.

b. Configure the adapter and slot:

#cfgadm -v -c configure sysctrl#:slot#

The states and conditions for a configured attachment point should be:

Receptacle state—Connected

Occupant state—Configured

Condition—OK

Now the system is also aware of the usable devices which reside on the adapter and all devices may be mounted or configured to be used.

7.Reconfigure the devices on the adapter

#drvconfig; devlinks; disks; ports; tapes;

The console should now display a list of devices and their addresses.
