path_to_inst output for usb storage device
Hello,
I have a sun blade 100 with solaris 10 and am perplexed by the instances of devices that I see when I attach a usb flash stick to one of the ports in the back of the chassis.
Here is what I see for USB storage in /etc/path_to_inst:
"/pci@1f,0/usb@c,3/storage@3" 0 "scsa2usb"
"/pci@1f,0/usb@c,3/storage@3/disk@0,0" 0 "sd"
"/pci@1f,0/usb@c,3/storage@1" 1 "scsa2usb"
"/pci@1f,0/usb@c,3/storage@1/disk@0,0" 2 "sd"
It seems to me there is only usb device other than keyboard and mouse attached, can someone explain this output?
Thanks

5. Shell Programming and Scripting
I need a way to reliably detect a USB storage device from a bash script. I know how to use 'lsusb' to list the USB devices - but then how can I match a device listed in 'lsusb' output to an actual disk device? Is there some way to map one to the other?
Any help appreciated. (3 Replies)

usb-devices(1) Linux USB Utilities usb-devices(1)
NAME
usb-devices - print USB device details
SYNOPSIS
usb-devices
DESCRIPTION
usb-devices is a (bash) shell script that can be used to display details of USB buses in the system and the devices connected to them.
The output of the script is similar to the usb/devices file available either under /proc/bus (if usbfs is mounted), or under /sys/ker-
nel/debug (if debugfs is mounted there). The script is primarily intended to be used if the file is not available.
In contrast to the usb/devices file, this script only lists active interfaces (those marked with a "*" in the usb/devices file) and their
endpoints.
Be advised that there can be differences in the way information is sorted, as well as in the format of the output.
RETURN VALUE
If sysfs is not mounted, a non-zero exit code is returned.
FILES
/sys/bus/usb/devices/usb*
The part of the sysfs tree the script walks through to assemble the printed information.
/proc/bus/usb/devices
Location where the usb/devices file can normally be found for Linux kernels before 2.6.31, if usbfs is mounted.
/sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices
Location where the usb/devices file can normally be found for Linux kernel 2.6.31 and later, if debugfs is mounted.
