Hi,

Try with the below..

# dmesg|grep -i boot
Boot device's HP-UX HW path is: 0/1/2/0.1.0

# ioscan -fnH 0/1/2/0.1.0


It may helps you (I believe)

This information is written to console during boot and written to dmesg buffer / syslog /console log, e.g.

Boot device's HP-UX HW path is: 2/0/12/1/0/4/0.15.4.0.0.0.1



But why does it matter?
