GOAL
To help determine HDD location when explorer file is not available.
SOLUTION
This document only addresses ways to determine the specific IOU and disk location.
Use the below device table as a guide:
Normal Disk Location:
Hard disk drive (HDD#0 IOU#0)

Needed files to determine disk path:
Solaris:
format
fmtopo -V
prtdiag -v
showboards -va
From the XSCF:
If the snapshot cannot be provided ask for the showboards -va or showdcl -v -a.
It is very important to understand that the physical system board defines which IOU is used (XSB 00 is IOU#0 XSB 01 is
IOU#1).

Scenario 1: Missing Disk
Disk c3t1d0 was removed from the system. This scenario walk through the process of determining the
specific
IOU that is used and how to determine which HDD needs replacing.
Four drives available to the system
AVAILABLE DISK SELECTIONS:

/pci@c0,600000/pci@0/pci@8/pci@0/scsi@1/sd@0,0
Now only three drives available to the system:
c3t1d0 is missing

Snippet of prtdiag -v:
You can compare the LSB number from prtdiag to the LSB number from the showboards output. That is
another
way to determine the correct IOU.
In this instance the correct LSB is 12.

1) In the above scenario you should be able to determine the specific IOU.
2) Obtain the Target number of the failed disk (ex: target 1 c3t1d0).
3) Reference the device table to determine the correct HDD.
4) Replace or reseat the disk as needed.
Scenario 2: - Server is at the "ok" prompt.
The device path for this disk is /pci@b0,600000/pci@0/pci@8/pci@0/scsi.
Refer to the LSB assignment chart below to determine where /pci@b0 is assigned.
In this instance "b" is assigned to LSB 11.
The showboards output has LSB 11 on XSB 00-0.
