NAME
vparutil - get and set SCSI parameters for SCSI controllers from a virtual partition SYNOPSIS
dev_path dev_path dev_path scsi_id] scsi_rate] DESCRIPTION
The command gets and sets SCSI parameters for SCSI controllers within a running virtual partition. When setting the SCSI parameters using the option, the virtual partition which owns the specified SCSI controller must be in the down state. If not, the command will fail with the appropriate error code. The SCSI parameters for a given SCSI controller must first be set (from the firmware BCH prompt or using the option) before the parameters can be retrieved using the option. The command is allowed on Itanium(R)-based platforms for compatibility. No action is taken for the command. Options recognizes the following command-line options: Deletes an entry for the specified SCSI controller at dev_path from the SCSI table. Gets the SCSI parameters for the specified SCSI controller at dev_path. Sets the SCSI parameters for the specified SCSI controller at dev_path. Operands recognizes the following command-line operands: dev_path The device path of the SCSI controller. id The SCSI ID for the specified controller (defaults to 7). rate The SCSI rate for the specified controller. This parameter can have one of two values: for the corresponding fast wide and ultra wide SCSI interfaces. Note For managing SCSI controllers, use corresponding SCSI utilities. For further information refer to SECURITY RESTRICTIONS
This command is restricted to processes owned by superuser. When virtual partition flexible administrative capability is enabled, only a Designated-Admin vPar can set SCSI parameters for SCSI con- trollers. EXAMPLES
Set the SCSI ID for controller at 0/0/2/0 to 3 with the fast wide rate: RETURN VALUE
Successful. Invalid SCSI controller specification. Invalid SCSI ID. Could not communicate with virtual partition monitor. Virtual partition which owns SCSI controller is not in down state. Internal firmware call failed. Other error. AUTHOR

NAME
scsi_address - SCSI address structure SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/scsi/scsi.h> INTERFACE LEVEL
Solaris architecture specific (Solaris DDI) DESCRIPTION
A scsi_address structure defines the addressing components for a SCSI target device. The address of the target device is separated into two components: target number and logical unit number. The two addressing components are used to uniquely identify any type of SCSI device; however, most devices can be addressed with the target component of the address. In the case where only the target component is used to address the device, the logical unit should be set to 0. If the SCSI target device supports logical units, then the HBA must interpret the logical units field of the data structure. The pkt_address member of a scsi_pkt(9S) is initialized by scsi_init_pkt(9F). STRUCTURE MEMBERS
scsi_hba_tran_t *a_hba_tran; /* Transport vectors for the SCSI bus */ ushort_t a_target; /* SCSI target id */ uchar_t a_lun; /* SCSI logical unit */ a_hba_tran is a pointer to the controlling HBA's transport vector structure. The SCSA interface uses this field to pass any transport requests from the SCSI target device drivers to the HBA driver. a_target is the target component of the SCSI address. a_lun is the logical unit component of the SCSI address. The logical unit is used to further distinguish a SCSI target device that supports multiple logical units from one that does not. The makecom(9F) family of functions use the a_lun field to set the logical unit field in the SCSI CDB, for compatibility with SCSI-1. SEE ALSO
