Assuming you're saying you connect directly to the P2000 via a FC HBA, is the HBA recognized by the OS?
As root, run:
That should show the HBA ports, assuming your HBA is recognized by the OS. If it's not reconized, find Solars x86 drivers for the HBA.
Once your HBA is recognized, you need to find out what LUNs the HBA can see. If you do have a supported HBA, then run this as root to see what LUNs the HBA can see:
All,
Is there a way to RAID the disks in Solaris 9? Solaris 8 provided DiskSuite for mirroring disk drives. Is there a GUI for DiskSuite in Solaris 9?
Thanks,

if i want to create a raid 5 device on 3 disks I have, can I make multiple metadevices? all the example i see on the internet make use of the slice 2 placing the entire disk into the raid5 device.
what if i make 3 identical slices on each disk, and make 3 raid 5 metadevices? will that work? (1 Reply)
Hi there,
I was wondering if it is possible to include a RAID configuration in my Solaris 10 Jumpstart files, so that I don't have to manually set up RAID on all my machines.
Thanks
P.S. I started messing around with Solaris only a week back, so if I sound like a complete idiot, you know... (1 Reply)
Hi,
I tried to setup a Riad 0+1 but I found no step by step manual to follow so I tried on my own ;)
I'd already configured a mirror for the OS on my Solaris machines so I had an idea where to start. I have 9 drives in the server.
1. I configured the first two as a mirror for the OS.
2. I... (1 Reply)
hi all, will command metastats tell whether there is hardware layered raid ?
i intend to do patching and plug out one of the disks in case the one inside encountered issues. (1 Reply)
I've just installed Sol 10 Update 9 on a Sun 4140 server and have a RAID 1 configuration (2 136 Gb drives) for the OS and have created a RAID 5 array (6 136 GB) drives. When i log into the system I am unable to see the RAID 5 disks at all. I've tried using the devfsadm command but no luck and... (9 Replies)
Hello folks;
I'm trying to install Solaris 10 x86 on SUN X4150 box with 6 disks in it, the question is how can i create a Virtual disk like RAID 0 before i install Solaris.
When i boot up i don't see any option to go and create my raid before the installation begin.
Thanks in advance for any... (2 Replies)
We have hardware RAID configured on Sun-Blade-T6320 and one of the disk got failed. Hence we replaced the failed disk. But the hot swapped disk not recognized by RAID. Kindly help on fixing this issue.
We have 2 LDOM configured on this server and this server running on single disk.

Hey everyone. First, let me start by saying I'm primarily focused on linux boxes, and just happened to get pulled into building two T5220's. I'm not super educated on sun boxes.
Both T5220's have 8 146GB 15k SAS drives. Inside the service processor, I can run SHOW /SYS/HDD{0-7} and they all come... (2 Replies)

HBA_GetBindingCapability(3HBAAPI) Common Fibre Channel HBA Information Library Functions HBA_GetBindingCapability(3HBAAPI)NAME
HBA_GetBindingCapability, HBA_GetBindingSupport, HBA_SetBindingSupport - return and sets binding capabilities on an HBA port
SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag... ] file... -lHBAAPI [ library... ]
#include <hbaapi.h>
HBA_HANDLE HBA_GetBindingCapability(HBA_HANDLE handle,
HBA_WWN hbaPortWWN, HBA_BIND_CAPABILITY *pFlags);
HBA_STATUS HBA_GetBindingSupport(HBA_HANDLE handle, HBA_WWN
hbaPortWWN, HBA_BIND_CAPABILITY *pFlags);
void HBA_SetBindingSupport(HBA_HANDLE handle, HBA_WWN hbaPortWWN,
HBA_BIND_CAPABILITY Flags);
PARAMETERS
handle an open handle returned from HBA_OpenAdapter(3HBAAPI)
hbaPortWWN the Port WWN of the local HBA through which the binding capabilities implemented by the HBA is returned
pFlags a pointer to an HBA_BIND_CAPABILITY structure that returns the persistent binding capabilites implemented by the HBA
Flags an HBA_BIND_CAPABILITY structure containing the persistent binding capabilites to enable for the HBA
DESCRIPTION
The HBA_GetBindingCapability() function returns the binding capabilities implemented by the HBA.
The HBA_GetBindingSupport() function returns the currently enabled binding capabilities for the HBA.
The HBA_SetBindingSupport() function sets the currently enabled binding capabilites for the HBA to a subset of the binding capabilities
implemented by the HBA.
RETURN VALUES
The HBA_GetBindingCapability() and HBA_GetBindingSupport() functions return the following values:
HBA_STATUS_OK
Persistent binding capabilites have been returned.
HBA_STATUS_ERROR_ILLEGAL_WWN
Port WWN hbaPortWWN is not a WWN contained by the HBA referenced by handle.
HBA_STATUS_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED
The HBA handle specified by handle does not support persistent binding.
HBA_STATUS_ERROR
An error occurred. The value of pFlags remains unchanged and points to the persistent binding capabilites.
The HBA_SetBindingSupport() function returns:
HBA_STATUS_OK
Persistent binding capabilites have been enabled.
HBA_STATUS_ERROR_ILLEGAL_WWN
Port WWN hbaPortWWN is not a WWN contained by the HBA referenced by handle.
HBA_STATUS_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED
The HBA handle specified by handle does not support persistent binding.
HBA_STATUS_ERROR_INCAPABLE
The flags argument contains a capability not implemented by the HBA.
HBA_STATUS_ERROR
An error occurred.
