[niftysw]

How can I get the disk model of internal disks on HP-UX? The system is rx4640.

Best regards,

ioscan -fnC disk will provide you the information like this,
ioscan -fnC disk
Class I H/W Path Driver S/W State H/W Type Description
===========================================================================
disk 0 2/0/1/1/0.0.0 sdisk CLAIMED DEVICE HP 146 GST3146855LC
/dev/dsk/c0t0d0 /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s2 /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0 /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s2
/dev/dsk/c0t0d0s1 /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s3 /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s1 /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s3


and if you do ;

diskinfo -v /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0
SCSI describe of /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0:

the disks which are internel their hardware path will look like 2/0/1/1/0.0.0 this type.
the disks which are connected by SAN ,the hardware path should be like this

As mentioned by nijokj disk model can be identified by ioscan command.
When you run ioscan -fnC disk command there should a Description field which says the disk model number for all connected disks.

It there is IR volume is built-in, ioscan can not recognise the physical disks configured in RAID.

diskifo would show the device type as LOGICAL VOLUME, instead of DIRECT ACCESS.

In this scenarion, you may need to use sautil. saconfig to view the physical disks and RAID controller details.

check the controller device file in ioscan, /dev/ciss*

#sautil /dev/ciss*
#saconfig /dev/ciss*
