commands hanging when querying hardware

Hi all

Got another strange one. If I try to enquire about the hardware, the command hangs implying Ive got a hardware issue. So, if I execute :-

iostat -en
sysdef - ( stops at the devices part )
format
cfgadm -al

Anything that searches the devices, then the command hangs.

The server has two se3310 arrays attached via dual bus configuration. A disk had failed on there, so I thought this was causing the issue. This was replaced, but still thesre commands dont work, i.e. device issue

I init 0, reset-all, probe-scsi-all to see if devices were visible, and they were, all , poweroff / poweron, probe-scsi-all, boot -s but still something is causing these issues on the device bus.

Probe-scsi-all :-

{1} ok probe-scsi-all
This command may hang the system if a Stop-A or halt command
has been executed. Please type reset-all to reset the system
before executing this command.

Look at the line with SBK next to it. I reckon I should see addtional lines underneath referring to the disks in that array, but I dont. So, Im assuming Ive got issues eith that array. ?? What do u guys reckon ?

Any ideas what I can look for ? use to find the offending device ?
