Device Paths

When manually deconfiguring and reconfiguring devices, you might need to
determine the full physical paths to those devices. You can do this by typing:

The show-devs command lists the system devices and displays the full path name
of each device. An example of a path name for a Fast Ethernet PCI card is shown
below:

You can display a list of current device aliases by typing:

You can also create your own device alias for a physical device by typing:

where alias_name is the alias that you want to assign, and physical_device_path is the
full physical device path for the device.

Note –

If you manually deconfigure a device alias using asr-disable, and then

assign a different alias to the device, the device will remain deconfigured even
though the device alias has changed.

You can determine which devices are currently disabled by typing:

The related deconfiguration and reconfiguration procedures are covered in:

“How to Deconfigure a Device Manually” on page 162

“How to Reconfigure a Device Manually” on page 163

Device identifiers are listed in “Reference for Device Identifiers” on page 61.
