eisa card detection

[VINCENT SPURGEON]

Is there a way under HP-UX 11.0 to display if any EISA cards in a D-Class server? We are planning to upgrade from the 32-bit version of HP-UX to 64-bit.

Hi:

Try this:

ioscan -fn | grep -i "EISA"

In general, the EISA HW paths will be 8/20/5/xx. You should see an 8/20/5; that's the bus adapter and it's ok but anything 8/20/5/xx will have to go.

ioscan -f | grep EISA

I have plenty of these useless things if you want them...

1. Take the cover off.
2. Look inside box.
3. The HSC cards are the ones that fit into the *small* connectors toward the front of the box.
4. The EISA cards are the ones that fit into the *large* connectors towards the back of the box.
5. D200, D210 or D310 have EISA paths of 20/5 paths
6. All other D2xx boxes and D3xx boxes have 8/20/5 paths.

You use EISA_CONFIG to remove information about EISA cards from NVM when removing cards.
