HP XP128, XP10000 manual Verifying device recognition, To verify device recognition, Example

Verifying device recognition

Verify that the HP-UX system recognizes the new devices on the disk array.

If the SCSI paths were defined after the system is powered on, you must halt and restart the system to allow the system to recognize the new devices.

To verify device recognition:

1.Log in to the system as root.

2.Display the device data to verify that the system recognizes the newly installed devices on the disk array. Use the ioscan –fncommand to display the device data.

On a system with a large LUN configuration, HP-UX may not build device files on all LUNs. Enter insf –eto build all missing device files.

Example

#ioscan -fn

In the example:

HP OPEN-9 device: SCSI bus number = 14/12, bus instance = 6, SCSI target ID = 0, LUN = 0.

HP OPEN-9*2 device: SCSI bus number = 14/12, bus instance = 6, SCSI target ID = 0, LUN = 1.

If UNKNOWN is displayed for a disk, the HP 9000 system may not be configured properly. Refer to the HP documentation or contact HP
