i am confused about virtual monitor path.
i am working a pertition which have two vpars
i can find that
Monitor boot disk path: 6.0.1.1.0.0.0.0.0.0.0
but lvlnboot output shows:
Boot Definitions for Volume Group /dev/vg00:
Physical Volumes belonging in Root Volume Group:
/dev/dsk/c2t0d0 (4/0/1/1/0.0.0) -- Boot Disk
/dev/dsk/c4t0d0 (6/0/0/1/0.0.0) -- Boot Disk
Boot: lvol1 on: /dev/dsk/c2t0d0
/dev/dsk/c4t0d0
Root: lvol3 on: /dev/dsk/c2t0d0
/dev/dsk/c4t0d0
Swap: lvol2 on: /dev/dsk/c2t0d0
/dev/dsk/c4t0d0
Dump: lvol2 on: /dev/dsk/c2t0d0, 0
My doubt is :
1.Which disk is being used by MON
2.How can i see this path?
As right now ioscan shows
disk 5 6/0/1/1/0.0.0 sdisk NO_HW DEVICE
/dev/dsk/c2t0d0 /dev/rdsk/c2t0d0
could you please more clear on this?

Re: path of vpmon not clear.
Monitor boot disk path: 6.0.1.1.0.0.0.0.0.0.0
Once started, the monitor resides in memory.
But while the system was up, the SCSI controller went away:
ext_bus 2 6/0/1/1/0 mpt NO_HW INTERFACE SCSI Ultra320 A6961-60011
/dev/mpt2
There is something wrong with your hardware (failed).
Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.

Re: path of vpmon not clear.
Re: path of vpmon not clear.
I think i am not able to make you guys clearer about the question. So, posting it again.
I am one Npar having two vpars, everything is working fine. Here are some outputs.
root@thopold:/root_home> vparstatus -m
Console path: 4.8.1
Monitor boot disk path: 6.0.1.1.0.0.0.0.0.0.0
Monitor boot filename: /stand/vpmon
Database filename: /stand/vpdb
root@thopold:/tmp/test99> lvlnboot -v
Boot Definitions for Volume Group /dev/vg00:
Physical Volumes belonging in Root Volume Group:
/dev/dsk/c2t0d0 (4/0/1/1/0.0.0) -- Boot Disk
/dev/dsk/c4t0d0 (6/0/0/1/0.0.0) -- Boot Disk
Boot: lvol1 on: /dev/dsk/c2t0d0
/dev/dsk/c4t0d0
Root: lvol3 on: /dev/dsk/c2t0d0
/dev/dsk/c4t0d0
Swap: lvol2 on: /dev/dsk/c2t0d0
/dev/dsk/c4t0d0
Dump: lvol2 on: /dev/dsk/c2t0d0, 0
Now, my confusion is
1) my vparstatus command is showing monitor disk path as 6.0.1.1.0.0.0.0.0.0.0, whereas lvlnboot and setboot command showing my primary boot path as 4/0/1/1/0.0.0. Now, the thing is if my server booted from 4/0/1/1/0.0.0, then it should have taken monitor path from the same disk. Why it is showing them monitor path from 6.0.1.1.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.
2) i attached its ioscan, where i sacnned on H/w path 6/0/1/1/0, but it shows me No_HW for all devices and also i am not able to find 6.0.1.1.0.0.0.0.0.0.0 h/w path in that ioscan. i tried ioscan on this h/w path, but it did not show anything. please explain this weird thing for me.
Thanks

SolutionThink about what the system does - boot the vpmon, then boot the vPars according to the configuration.
But the NO_HW entries are a problem. Check this!
Hope this helps!

Torsten.
