Yes, you can find the 66MHz slots on sunsolve.
Also, what are you using for volume management? If using Veritas Volume Manager, there is no need to worry about the controller numbers changing.
If using Sun Disk Suite, I think you will have problems.

Due to speed mismatch, the server kept crashing. Sun suggests that I need to move the two HBA cards from the 66Mhz to the 33Mhz slots. There are tons of disks that are connected to these HBAs and I have Veritas volume manager.

Hi,
I'm trying to determine which HBA cards are installed on my Solaris 10 (Sun-Fire-V240) machine.
The relevant data I have is below, but from it I cannot ascertain for sure if I have Emulex 10000 or 11000 HBA cards.
Can anyone suggest how to determine my HBA hardware ?
Thanks,
Ron.

volmgt_check
volmgt_check(3VOLMGT) Volume Management Library Functions volmgt_check(3VOLMGT)
NAME
volmgt_check - have Volume Management check for media
SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lvolmgt [ library ... ]
#include <volmgt.h>
int volmgt_check(char *pathname);
DESCRIPTION
This function is obsolete. The management of removable media by the Volume Management feature, including vold, has been replaced by soft-
ware that supports the Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL). Programmatic support for HAL is through the HAL APIs, which are documented on the
HAL web site. See hal(5). The return value of this function is undefined.
This routine asks volume Management to check the specified pathname and determine if new media has been inserted in that drive.
If a null pointer is passed in, then Volume Management will check each device it is managing that can be checked.
If new media is found, volmgt_check() tells volume management to initiate appropriate actions.
RETURN VALUES
The return from this function is undefined.
ERRORS
This routine can fail, returning 0, if a stat(2) or open(2) of the supplied pathname fails, or if any of the following is true:
ENXIO volume management is not running.
EINTR An interrupt signal was detected while checking for media.
EXAMPLES
Example 1 Checking If Any New Media Is Inserted
To check if any drive managed by volume management has any new media inserted in it:
if (volmgt_check(NULL)) {
(void) printf("Volume management found media
");
}
This would also request volume management to take whatever action was appropriate for the new media.
ATTRIBUTES
See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes:
+-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
| ATTRIBUTE TYPE | ATTRIBUTE VALUE |
+-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
|MT-Level |MT-Safe |
+-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
SEE ALSO
cc(1B), volcheck(1), open(2), stat(2), volmgt_inuse(3VOLMGT), volmgt_running(3VOLMGT), attributes(5), hal(5)
NOTES
Since volmgt_check() returns 0 for two different cases (both when no media is found, and when an error occurs), it is up to the user to to
check errno to differentiate the two, and to ensure that volume management is running.
