In this example, the HBA’s path is 0/0/10/0/0 and 0/0/10/0/1 (shown in bold in the listing above, for highlighting purposes). Note that the last (farthest right) digit is the channel
Step 3. Display (and optionally change) the HBA’s maximum data transfer rate by performing the following steps:
a.If you are already at the “Main Menu,” type ser (for “Service Menu”); go to step b.
If you are not at the “Main Menu,” type main (to return to the “Main Menu”), type ser (for “Service Menu”), and then go to step b.
b.In the “Service Menu,” type the following command:
scsi path rate
where path is the HBA’s path (from step 1).
Therefore, using the information for channel A of the HBA in the example in step 1, type the following:
scsi 0/0/10/0/0 rate
This displays the HBA’s maximum data transfer rate. The output is as follows:
Path (dec) | Initiator ID | SCSI Rate | Auto Term | Bus Width |
0/0/10/0/0 | 7 | MAX | ON | MAX |
