Physical Disk Slot Numbers, Physical Device
Names, and Logical Device Names for Non-RAID
Disks

To perform a disk hot-plug procedure, you must know the physical or logical device
name for the drive that you want to install or remove. If your system encounters a
disk error, often you can find messages about failing or failed disks in the system
console. This information is also logged in the /var/adm/messages files.

These error messages typically refer to a failed hard drive by its physical device
name (such as

/devices/pci@1f,700000/scsi@2/sd@1,0

) or by its logical device

name (such as

c0t1d0

). In addition, some applications might report a disk slot

number (0 through 3).

You can use

TABLE 3-1

to associate internal disk slot numbers with the logical and

physical device names for each hard drive.
