Verifying Installation
After installing the adapter and the c8xx driver and attaching the
peripheral devices, verify that all of the components are working by
performing the following steps:
Step 1. To verify that the adapter is correctly installed, issue the following
command:
ioscan -fnk
The applicable lines in the ioscan output can have the following form:
ext_bus 0 0/0/10/0/0 c8xx CLAIMED INTERFACE SCSI C1010 Ultra160 Wide LVD A6829-60101
ext_bus 0 0/0/10/0/1 c8xx CLAIMED INTERFACE SCSI C1010 Ultra160 Wide LVD A6829-60101
The third column shows the hardware path of the PCI device/function
(shown in bold in the above example, for highlighting purposes). The
A6829A supports two PCI devices/functions (one per channel). In
addition, since this is a dual channel HBA, two lines are listed—one for
channel A of the adapter (denoted by a 0 as the last digit in the hardware
path), and one for channel B (denoted by a 1 as the last digit).
Step 2. In the same lines of the ioscan output, verify that the adapter is claimed
by the SCSI c8xx driver, by looking at the fifth column of information
(shown in bold in the example below, for highlighting purposes):
ext_bus 0 0/0/10/0/0 c8xx CLAIMED INTERFACE SCSI C1010 Ultra160 Wide LVD A6829-60101
ext_bus 0 0/0/10/0/1 c8xx CLAIMED INTERFACE SCSI C1010 Ultra160 Wide LVD A6829-60101
If the adapter is not claimed, see “If the A6829A Adapter is Not Claimed”
on page 88.
Step 3. Still in the same lines of the ioscan output, verify that the SCSI driver
and adapter information are displayed (they are shown in bold in the
example below, for highlighting purposes):
ext_bus 0 0/0/10/0/0 c8xx CLAIMED INTERFACE SCSI C1010 Ultra160 Wide LVD A6829-60101
ext_bus 0 0/0/10/0/1 c8xx CLAIMED INTERFACE SCSI C1010 Ultra160 Wide LVD A6829-60101
In this example, the SCSI driver information is c8xx (the name of the
driver), and the adapter information is as follows:
