Note the recall and replacement of all A5838 parts with 'A5838-69101'. Here's and ioscan to review 'ioscan -fnkC lan':
lan 2 0/8/0/0/6/0 btlan3 CLAIMED INTERFACE HP A5838A PCI 100BaseTX/SCSI COMBO
lan 18 0/8/0/0/7/0 btlan3 CLAIMED INTERFACE HP A5838A PCI 100BaseTX/SCSI COMBO
lan 4 0/12/0/0/6/0 btlan3 CLAIMED INTERFACE HP A5838A PCI 100BaseTX/SCSI COMBO
lan 20 0/12/0/0/7/0 btlan3 CLAIMED INTERFACE HP A5838A PCI 100BaseTX/SCSI COMBO
Regarding "...Which scsi port is A.." - In the above example, refer to the fifth address field for 0/8/0/0/6/0 and 0/8/0/0/7/0, then A = 6 and B = 7.
Use 'ioscan -fn', probably under the 'ext_bus' to find the SCSI ports.
Also refer to STM > Information

There is a note on the link Graham posed specifically noting not to search for the driver there.

I always wondered where to find drivers. There really appears to be no central online location.

The driver should be on your Core OS cd, and then you can apply patches to it.

A careful search of itrc patches does seem to turn up the drivers.

Still, its far from intiutive.

I'm posting an enhancement request.

What kind of server is it in?

That seems to be how driver software is organized.

Grrrr.

The 'btlan3' driver should be already in /stand/system.

grep -i btlan /stand/system

sysdef | grep -i btlan

Also refer to /etc/rc.config.d/hpbase100conf
