Re: Help initializing hp disk system 2300

do you have another system connectted to 2300?

if this is, you change the SCSI ID from any controller?

No other system is attached to this disk array. Thanks.

Re: Help initializing hp disk system 2300

it not seem a drivers problem...

can you attach a draw with connections from SCSI cards from the disk system?

revise cables and terminators!

Re: Help initializing hp disk system 2300

I am not sure if I understand your question, but here's what the physical attachment looks like. I have two scsi host adapters on the rp54xx. One host adapters goes to BCC A (right) and the other to BCC B (left side). Any idea why it's not seeing the disks?

Re: Help initializing hp disk system 2300

Not sure if this is the cause of the problem, on the leftc side of bcc (0/12/0) ioscan diff from the right side (0/10/0):
# ioscan -H 0/10/0
H/W Path Class Description
======================================================
0/10/0/0 ba PCItoPCI Bridge
0/10/0/1 i2o IOP
0/10/0/1.0 ext_bus I2O Block Storage
0/10/0/1.0.7 target
0/10/0/1.0.7.0 ctl Initiator
# ioscan -H 0/12/0
H/W Path Class Description
=======================================
0/12/0/0 ba PCItoPCI Bridge
0/12/0/1 i2o IOP

As you may have noticed, there's no scsi id 7 on (0/12/0), is this because I have the dip switch 1 set to on? This does not explains why I'm not seeing the disks, but it would clearify why the output of ioscan is not the same for the above scsi host adapters. Thanks.

Hi

have you tried the following

insf -e
or
rebooting the system
you should be able to see them when you do

ioscan -fnkC disk
or in sam.

I did insf -e and ioscan -fnkC, still not seeing the disks attached to it. Here's the output of ioscan -fnkC:
