UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers

Hello all,

I'm lost and can't figure this problem out.
I have a Sun fire 280R running Solaris 8. Everything was working great. I have one drive in bay 1(not 0). But when I reboot the system it trys to open files in /dev/rdsk/c1t1d0s0. Should it have been opeing /dev/rdsk/c1t0d0s0, the funning thing is that if I did a fsck on /dev/rdsk/c1t0d0s0 it finds the drive but if I try c1t1d0s0, it states not vaild. Any help would be great.

Thanks

post the output of "probe-scsi-all" from the ok prompt. also "printenv" and "devalias".

DukeNuke2,

In open boot things look correct the drive show ups, the enviorment boot disk show booting from /pci@8,6000/SUNW,qlc@4. It seem to start the boot, it show the correct hostname but then it can't open /dev/rdsk/c1t1/d0s0. It looks like the boot file may be bad. How would I fix this or check it.

Thanks

please do a "boot -sv" and post the output.

DukeNuke2,

After looking I came to the conclusion thet the scsi control is bad. When I put the dirve into bay 1(scsi target 1) it register as target 0. That is why it will not see c1t1d0s0. Does this sound right? That is all I can come up with.
