Question Controller target disk?

Hi,
I am a newbie to Solaris. I want to know how to find out the controller target and disk number on a SunFire V890 box that has 6X72GB disks. The probe-scsi output is as shown below:

/pci@8,600000/SUNW,qlc@2
LiD HA LUN --- Port WWN --- ----- Disk description -----
0 0 0 500000e010936931 FUJITSU MAP3735F SUN72G 1701
1 1 0 500000e010937731 FUJITSU MAP3735F SUN72G 1701
2 2 0 500000e010938651 FUJITSU MAP3735F SUN72G 1701
6 6 0 50800200001e2a51 SUNW SUNWGS INT FCBPL922A
3 3 0 500000e010938d41 FUJITSU MAP3735F SUN72G 1701
4 4 0 500000e010933531 FUJITSU MAP3735F SUN72G 1701
5 5 0 500000e0109386d1 FUJITSU MAP3735F SUN72G 1701


Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance..

Hi sudhir_shet,

I think you already have the control ids listed, the LiD & Port WWN you'll find are unique.

Before running any commands always check your man pages for backround & detailed information;

<snip start>
bash-2.05$ man format
Reformatting page. Please Wait... done

System Administration Commands

NAME
format - disk partitioning and maintenance utility
<snip end>


I believe the system is using FC-AL fibre disks, if you can boot the system to run solaris;

run the command

(As root or with root permission)

# format

(This will provide you with a list of attached disks & solaris control ids)

I hope this is of help
