The Configure Added/Replaced Devices function runs the configuration manager on the parent adapters that had child devices added or removed. This function ensures that the devices in the configuration database are configured correctly.
Standalone Diagnostics has restrictions on using the SCSI Hot Plug Manager. For example:
vDevices being used as replacement devices must be exactly the same type of device as the device being replaced.
vNew devices may not be added unless a device of the same FRU part number already exists in the system, because the configuration information for the new device is not known after the Standalone Diagnostics are booted.
You can run this task directly from the command line. See the following command syntax:

Log Repair Action
The Log Repair Action task logs a repair action in the AIX Error Log. A Repair Action log indicates that a FRU has been replaced, and error log analysis should not be done for any errors logged before the repair action. The Log Repair Action task lists all resources. Replaced resources can be selected from the list, and when commit (F7 key) is selected, a repair action is logged for each selected resource. For more information see, ªRepair Actionº on page 15.
