Troubleshooting Fibre Cards

[RedBack]

Im trying to troubleshoot the HBA's in my rp7400. What is the switch for ioscan to list the devices?

[Pete Randall]

ioscan -fn

# ioscan -fn

will list all devices.

# ioscan -fnC disk

will list disks. replace disk with any other device type for specific information

# ioscan -fnC tape

ioscan -funC lan

Hi,

Use
ioscan -fnC fc (fcp) (ext_bus)
fc = fibre channel (HBA)
fcp = FCP Domain
ext_bus = FCP Array Interface

HTH,
Jeff

/opt/fcms/bin/fcmsutil /dev/

fc_dev_file is retrieved from
ioscan -fnk
It's either /dev/td<#> or /dev/fcms<#>
depending on your card model.

You can get lots of interesting status using
fcmsutil /dev/fcms1 stats
for example.

Later,
Bill

Once you find the top path for the HBA I always find that the following command proves usefull to tract everything on that HBA's channel -

ioscan -fnH8/8 (assuming 8/8 is your channel)
