Determining PCI Card Slot Locations
HP System Partitions Guide: Administration for nPartitions, rev 5.1 382
Step 4. Enter the rad -N path command and specify the hardware path ( path ),
which lssf reported as the “address” of the filesystem’s physical volume.
The rad command displays the hardware slot for the filesystem’s card, in
cabinet-bay-chassis-slot format.

This example determines which PCI card (0-1-3-5) supports the /stand
filesystem.

Determining a Boot Device Path’s PCI Card Slot
This procedure determines which PCI card slot is used by an nPartition’s
boot path variable (such as PRI, HAA, or ALT).
Step 1. Issue the /usr/sbin/parstatus -V -p # | grep Path command, and
specify the local nPartition’s partition number (-p # ).
This command displays the boot path variable settings for the
nPartition.
To determine the local partition number, enter the parstatus -w
command.
Step 2. Issue the rad -N path command and specify the hardware path ( path )
of the boot path variable of interest.
