I just installed IBMsddsun64_........... on my sun server. I untarred it (tar xvf) & I tried to install the paxkage. When I did pkgadd -d ./IBMsdd..... I get a message Error, no packages were found.
Any idea

Hi all,
Sorry if this is in the wrong place but needed to make sure lots of people saw this so that hopefully someone will be able to help.
Basically i've upgraded a test server from 4.3 to 5.3 TL04.
The server has hdisk0 and 1 as rootvg locally but then has another vg setup on our ESS... (1 Reply)
Hello Unix Admins:
Has any one in this distribution list implemented SVC (SAN Volume Contoller - A solution from IBM) in your environment? If you have, do you have any do's / don'ts? Anything which you like sharing would be really appreciated.
For example, my inputs:

Can anyone recommend me some reading material surrounding how AIX handles LUNs:
- with and without MPIO installed
- with and without SDD or SDDPCM installed
Where does lspath sit in all of this (MPIO layer?). Can a system be built with just MPIO software? Is MPIO software even needed?
I guess... (0 Replies)
I was wondering if there is a way of auto-detecting a new vpath, using IBM's SDD driver, on a Linux platform.
ON AIX it is a simple as running cfgmgr.

Hi folks.
We want to move a "physical" AIX box to a VIOed LPAR. The physical box is running SDD with disks from a DS8300. I want to be able to reattach those LUNs from the DS8300 to my VIO server which is running SDDPCM and then assigned them back to my AIX LPAR. Any thoughts about this?

I have sdd driver installed correctly but
when I run the command:
datapath query adapter
No device file found
what does it mean.. it is not using vpath or whats wrong? (2 Replies)
We have AIX 6.1 system attached to SAN disks (DS4700 and DS8100) thru SVC.
Initially when the system was I forgot to install sddpcm drivers. and wanted to know how can i go with the installation of the sddpcm drivers.
My understandin going thru the manual ... (3 Replies)
I have same lun (hdisk3) assigned to 2 vios server (dual vio server) and this is mapped to the client lpar. I have sddpcm on the VIO.
On the VIOA, the attributes for fscsi1 and fscsi3 are set to fast_fail and dyntrk is set to yes
Now, if I do a lqueryvg -Atp on the hdisk3, I get a "DISK... (4 Replies)
hi all
we recently upgraded our san switches. after that, i found i got many hdisks showing in lsdev with status "Defined" and "Available". the number of "Defined" is equal to "Available". the time stamp shows all "Available" disks created at our downtime night.

ASR(4) BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual ASR(4)NAME
asr -- driver for Adaptec I2O based SCSI/ATA host bus adapters
SYNOPSIS
device asr
DESCRIPTION
The Adaptec asr driver provides access to disks and disk arrays controlled by I2O based host bus adapters and SmartRAID SCSI RAID adapters
through the standard SCSI disk da(4) interface.
The supported adapters provide 64 bit PCI, Compact PCI, Zero Channel PCI, and up to four channels of Ultra2, Ultra 160, or Ultra320 SCSI, or
two channels of 1GB Fibre. All support RAID-0, RAID-1, RAID-10, RAID-5 and RAID-50 arrays. All SCSI target types are supported. For the
ATA based controllers, one IDE drive per channel is supported. Hot-swapping of IDE drives is not supported at this time.
All host bus adapters must be configured before they can be used with any operating system. Please contact Adaptec directly to obtain the
latest information on configuration utilities for the adapters. Currently there are both a Motif based GUI configuration utility and a CLI
based configuration utility available from the Adaptec Web site. The cards and arrays can also be configured via the BIOS based configura-
tion tool (SMOR).
HARDWARE
The adapters currently supported by the asr driver include the following:
o Adaptec Zero-Channel SCSI RAID 2000S, 2005S, 2010S, 2015S
o Adaptec SCSI RAID 2100S, 2110S
o Adaptec ATA-100 RAID 2400A
o Adaptec SCSI RAID 3200S, 3210S
o Adaptec SCSI RAID 3400S, 3410S
o Adaptec SmartRAID PM1554
o Adaptec SmartRAID PM1564
o Adaptec SmartRAID PM2554
o Adaptec SmartRAID PM2564
o Adaptec SmartRAID PM2664
o Adaptec SmartRAID PM2754
o Adaptec SmartRAID PM2865
o Adaptec SmartRAID PM3754
o Adaptec SmartRAID PM3755U2B / SmartRAID V Millennium
o Adaptec SmartRAID PM3757
o DEC KZPCC-AC (LVD 1-ch, 4MB or 16MB cache), DEC KZPCC-CE (LVD 3-ch, 64MB cache), DEC KZPCC-XC (LVD 1-ch, 16MB cache), DEC KZPCC-XE (LVD
3-ch, 64MB cache) -- rebadged SmartRAID V Millennium

NOTES
The ATA based controllers present their devices as SCSI-like devices via CAM. For IDE drives attached to these cards, a subset of standard
SCSI commands and mode pages are understood via translation performed in the card's firmware.
SEE ALSO da(4)HISTORY
The asr (Adaptec SCSI RAID) driver first appeared as the dpti2o driver under BSDi BSD/OS 3.2, then under FreeBSD 2.2.8 and was ported over to
the CAM layer represented in 4.0.
