In the former case above, the ioscan output for a combo-card (combination of SCSI and LAN on a single PCI

card) may show:

disk 0 12/0/8/0/0/4/0.0.0 ... SEAGATE ST39103LC

Then, the vPars command would be

# vparmodify -p winona2 -a io:12/0/8/0/0/4/0.0.0

Note that this path of 12/0/8/0/0/4/0.0.0 becomes correctly padded to 12.0.8.0.0.4.0.0.0.0.0.0.0, in

accordance to the table above. Subsequently, the vparstatus output would show this path as

12.0.8.0.0.4.0.0.0.0.0.0.0, which can be used if you wish to cut and paste the path as in the command

“vparmodify -p winona2 -m io:12.0.8.0.0.4.0.0.0.0.0.0.0:BOOT”.

In the latter case above, the vparstatus output for a combo-card may be:

12:0.8.0.0.4.0.0.0.0.0.0.0 BOOT

Then, the vPars command would be:

# vparmodify -p winona2 \

-m io:12.0.8.0.0.4.0.0.0.0.0.0.0:ALTBOOT
