Displaying the SCSI Device ID

The

SCSI device ID

attribute identifies an ID number assigned to

each SCSI device attached to a SCSI channel, which you need to
perform operations on a disk device. You also use the SCSI device ID
to perform some container-related tasks.

SCSI devices connected to a controller are identified by their channel
number, SCSI device ID, and logical unit number, which are shown
as C:ID:L in command output listings. For example, a SCSI device
ID might be identified by the CLI as 2:02:0, where "2" refers to the
channel number, "02" refers to the SCSI device ID, and "0" refers to
the logical unit number.

The number of channels available depends on the model of RAID
controller installed on your system. See the installation guide for
your controller to determine the number of available channels.

To display the SCSI device IDs associated with the devices
connected to a controller, use the

disk list

command, as in the

following example. In the example, the C:ID:L column shows the
SCSI device IDs for each device.

Displaying Device Types

The

device type

attribute indicates if a device connected to a

controller is a disk, printer, scanner, etc.

Note:

All devices such as disks, tape drives, CD-ROM

drives, and so forth, connected to the controller must be
SCSI devices.

To display the types of devices connected to a controller, use the

disk list

command, as in the following example. In the

example, the Device Type column lists the types of devices
