Correction to my above post: ( for x & y )



You can use olrad -q command to see the hardware and HBA locations.

# olrad -q

It will be in
w-x-y-z format : details given below:
--------------------------

w = Cabinet Number. [ 0 or 1 ]
x = i/o bay number [ 0 or 1 ]
y = i/o chasis number [ 1 or 3 ]
z = slot number. [ The slot HBA is connected]
--------------------------------------------

In Addition to this , if you take a look physically to the superdome you will find the "i/o bay" numbers are printed on front and rare of the superdome. i.e i/o bay#0 and i/o bay#1 .
Also i/o chasis#1 and i/o chasis#3 printed.
And one i/o chasis will have 12 slots. So from the olrad outpur you can easily locate which HBA is located physically in which position.




Cheers,

To be honest, i hope that you are not planning to touch a superdom without knowledge about it.

Service on a superdom may only provided by hp and it is not customer self repair!

As said earlier, consider to use the parmgr from system management homepage.

This is how it looks like:

John Ferro,

SD64B should be an Itanium superdome , 64 way, with added cabinets as you mentioned.

Please take a look at the link [ Superdome Cabinet Overview ] and hope it will clear up some of your doubts:

You have 4 cabinets?

cabinet 0 and 1 are the big ones, including cell boards and I/O. If you are in front, cab 0 is on the left, cab 1 is on the right (the big LED on the door is showing the number).

cabinet 8 and 9 are I/O expansions, each has a similar LED showing the number too.

Look at the cabinet, bay and chassis are labeled too.
