Information in this document applies to any platform.

Goal

 Confirm HBA presence on Solaris Server.

Solution

 This command will display the configuration of the hardware of the server.  The display of the information will be different for x86 and Sparc devices but will look the same.

X86 example extract:
#prtdiag -v

1.- Review the installed hardware against what customer has to assure they have connected.  A missing HBA will mean a HBA, PCI bus, or Solaris problem.  Please  contact the corresponding support group for help.

HBA problem -> Disc  connectivity Group (SAN)
X86 -> X86 Servers
Spark -> Spark Servers

2.- Sparc servers as they present more information regarding the hardware we can instantly recognize some information.

3.-Path /pci@0/pci@0/pci@8/pci@0/pci@2/pci@0/scsi@1  the name before the @ is the controller small name associated to the HW, "scsi" means we have a scsi HBA.

4.-Path /pci@0/pci@0/pci@8/pci@0/pci@2/pci@0,2/SUNW,emlxs@1 in this case we have  "SUNW,emlxs" this is a Sun branded Emulex  FC HBA

5.-Path /pci@0/pci@0/pci@8/pci@0/pci@2/pci@0,2/SUNW,emlxs@1,1 in this case we have "SUNW,emlxs"  as we can see the path is the same as the example before what changes is @1,1 this means that this is the same HBA with 2 FC connectors in it.

6.-Model Name as we can see the model names for the HBA's is present on the information LSI,1030 for the scsi one and LP11002-S for the dual chanel FC, a fast search will confirm all other information.
