HP 7420 Hardware Path Question

Please excuse my ignorance if the answer is obvious.
If I have the hardware paths listed from a UX prompt, 1/0/6/1/0, 1/0/14/1/0, 1/0/10/1/0/4/0, and 1/0/12/1/0/4/0, what would the actual hardware slot of each card be when viewing the server from the back?

Try to answer this yourself:

# olrad -q

will show you the path together with the slot number.

If yout running HP-UX i1.i V1 (11.11)then:
rad -q

If you are at 11.i V2 or V3 (11.23 / 11.31)
then the command is:
olrad -q
