Ok so from the LPAR you are trying to find the CDROM run a
lsdev -Cl cd0 -F parent


On one of my S824-42A's this is the path to the CD drive:
Code:
# lscfg -vpl cd0
  cd0              U78C9.001.WZS01PX-P2-D27  SATA DVD-RAM Drive

        Manufacturer................IBM.
        Machine Type and Model......RMBO0140512
        ROS Level and ID............RA65
        Device Specific.(Z0)........058002028F000030
        Part Number.................74Y7346
        EC Level....................N23938
        FRU Number..................74Y7341
        Hardware Location Code......U78C9.001.WZS01PX-P2-D27


  PLATFORM SPECIFIC

  Name:  disk
    Node:  disk
    Device Type:  block
# lsdev -Cl cd0 -F parent
sata0

# lscfg -vpl sata0
  sata0            U78C9.001.WZS01PX-P1-C14-T1  Controller SATA Protocol

  PLATFORM SPECIFIC

  Name:  sata
    Node:  sata
    Device Type:  sata_ioa

So, when you look at the HMC, the optical drive is hanging off P1-C14-T1.


This is why bakunin was saying VIO's make this easier. You could virtualize the optical drive and dynamically add it to any lpar. The above example I gave was from a box with no VIO. 100% of resources of the frame given to the lpar.

NAME
fcinfo - Fibre Channel HBA Port Command Line Interface SYNOPSIS
fcinfo hba-port [-l] [HBA_port_WWN...] fcinfo remote-port [-ls] [-p HBA_port_WWN] [REMOTE_port_WWN...] fcinfo [-V] fcinfo [-?] fcinfo is a command line interface that collects administrative information on fibre channel host bus adapter (HBA) ports on a host. It also collects data on any fibre channel targets that may be connected to those ports in a Storage Area Network (SAN). SUBCOMMANDS The following subcommands are supported: hba-port Lists information for the HBA port referenced by the specified HBA_port_WWN. If HBA_port_WWN is not specified, all fibre channel HBA ports on the host will be listed. remote-port Lists the remote-port information for those remote ports that are specified. If no REMOTE_port_WWN is specified, all remote ports that are visible through HBA_port_WWN are listed. OPTIONS
The following options are supported: -l, --linkstat Lists the link error statistics information for the port referenced by the specified HBA_port_WWN or REMOTE_port_WWN. -p HBA_port_WWN, --port HBA_port_WWN Retrieve remote port information from the HBA_port_WWN of the local HBA port on the host. The -p option can only be used with the remote-port subcommand and is a mandatory option. -s, --scsi-target Lists the SCSI target information for all remote ports the user has asked for. The -p, --port option must always be specified and must be a valid HBA port on the host. This HBA port will be used as the initiator for which to retrieve the SCSI level target information. Note that this will only function on remote port fibre channel World-Wide Names that support an FC4 type of SCSI. -V, --version Prints the version information. -?, --help Prints the usage information. EXAMPLES
Example 1: Listing all HBA ports The following command lists all fibre channel HBA ports on the host: # fcinfo hba-port HBA Port WWN: 210000e08b074cb5 OS Device Name: /dev/cfg/c1 Manufacturer: QLogic Corp.
