Installing the A6829A Adapter

 

Verifying Installation

 

The second line under each disk line shows the disk’s device files

 

(/dev/... [shown in bold in the example above, for highlighting

 

purposes]).

 

 

TIP

When the system boots after installation, the insf command creates the

 

proper device files for the “ctl” interfaces (which are usually adapters)

 

and the SCSI devices attached to the A6829A adapter. Sometimes,

 

though, it does not create all of the needed device files.

 

One situation when this happens is when you attach SCSI disks to the

 

adapter after the system boots and the adapter is already installed in the

 

system.

 

In the ioscan output, if you see a SCSI device listed without the second

 

line, that means you are missing that device’s device files. To fix the

 

problem, issue the insf -ecommand, which creates all of the device

 

files.

 

For more information about the ioscan command, see the ioscan(1M)

 

 

man page.

 

Refer to your system documentation for information about verifying

 

system operation.
