Specify the device or controller by either a complete physical pathname or a complete logical pathname.

For SENA, a typical physical pathname for a device is:

/devices/sbus@1f,0/SUNW,socal@1,0/sf@0,0/ssd@w2200002037000f96,
         0:a,raw

or

/devices/io-unit@f,e0200000/sbi@0,0/SUNW,socal@2,0/sf@0,0/ssd@34,
         0:a,raw

For all SENA IBs (Interface Boards) and Sun Fire 880 SES device controllers on the system, a logical link to the physical paths is kept in the directory /dev/es. An example of a logical link is /dev/es.

The WWN may be used in place of the pathname to select an FC_AL device, SENA subsystem IB, or Sun Fire 880 internal storage subsystem. The WWN is a unique 16 hexadecimal digit value that specifies either the port used to access the device or the device itself. A typical WWN value is:

2200002037000f96

See NOTES for more information on the WWN formats.

For the SPARCstorage Array controller, a typical physical pathname is:

/devices/.../.../SUNW,soc@3,0/SUNW,pln@
     axxxxxxx,xxxxxxxx:ctlr

whereas, a typical physical pathname for an RSM controller is:

/devices/sbus@1f,0/QLGC,isp@1,10000:devctl

In order to make it easier to address the SPARCstorage Array or RSM controller, a logical pathname of the form cN is supported, where N is the logical controller number. luxadm uses the cN name to find an entry in the /dev/rdsk directory of a disk that is attached to the SPARCstorage Array or RSM controller. The /dev/rdsk entry is then used to determine the physical name of the SPARCstorage Array or RSM controller.

For a SPARCstorage Array disk, a typical physical pathname is:

/devices/.../.../SUNW,soc@3,0/SUNW, pln@axxxxxxx,xxxxxxxx/ssd@0,0:c,raw

and a typical logical pathname is:

/dev/rdsk/c1t0d0s2

For an RSM a typical physical pathname is:

/devices/sbus@1f,0/QLGC,isp@1,10000/sd@8,0:c,raw

and a typical logical pathname is:

/dev/rdsk/c2t8d0s2

For a disk in a Sun Fire 880 internal storage subsystem, a typical physical pathname is:

/devices/pci@8,600000/SUNW,qlc@2/fp@0,0/ssd@w2100002037a6303c,0:a

and a typical logical pathname is:

/dev/rdsk/c2t8d0s2

For individual FC_AL devices, a typical physical pathname is:

/devices/sbus@3.0/SUNW,socal@d,10000/sf@0,0/ssd@w2200002037049fc3,0:a,raw

and a typical logical pathname is:

/dev/rdsk/c1t0d0s2

For SENA, a device may be identified by its enclosure name and slotname:

box_name[,fslot_number]

box_name[,rslot_number]

box_name is the name of the SENA enclosure, as specified by the enclosure_name subcommand. When used without the optional slot_number parameter, the box_name identifies the SENA subsystem IB.

f or r specifies the front or rear slots in the SENA enclosure.

slot_number specifies the slot number of the device in the SENA enclosure, 0-6 or 0-10.

For a Sun Fire 880 internal storage subsystem, a device may also be identified by its enclosure name and slot name. However, there is only one set of disks:

box_name[,sslot_number]

box_name is the name of the Sun Fire 880 enclosure, as specified by the enclosure_name subcommand. When used without the optional slot_number parameter, box_name identifies the Sun Fire 880 internal storage subsystem enclosure services device. Use s to specify the disk slot number in the Sun Fire 880 internal storage subsystem, 0 - 11.

See disks(1M) and devlinks(1M) for additional information on logical names for disks and subsystems.

display enclosure[,dev]...| pathname...

display -p pathname...

display -r enclosure[,dev]...| pathname...

display -v enclosure[,dev]...| pathname...

Displays enclosure or device specific data.

Subsystem data consists of enclosure environmental sense information and status for all subsystem devices, including disks.

Disk data consists of inquiry, capacity, and configuration information.

-p

Displays performance information for the device or subsystem specified by pathname. This option only applies to subsystems that accumulate performance information.

-r

Displays error information for the FC_AL device specified by the pathname, or, if the path is a SENA, for all devices on the loop. The -r option only applies to SENA subsystems and individual FC_AL devices.

-v

Displays in verbose mode, including mode sense data.

download [ -s ] [ -w WWN ] [ -f filename_path ] enclosure...

Download the prom image pointed to by filename_path to the SENA subsystem Interface Board unit, the Sun Fire 880 internal storage subsystem, or the SPARCstorage Array controllers specified by the enclosure or pathname. The SPARCstorage Array must be reset in order to use the downloaded code.

When the SENA's download is complete, the SENA will be reset and the downloaded code executed. If no filename is specified, the default prom image will be used. The default prom image for the SPARCstorage Array controller is in usr/lib/firmware/ssa/ssafirmware. The default prom image for the SENA is in the directory usr/lib/locale/C/LC_MESSAGES and is named ibfirmware

When the Sun Fire 880 internal storage subsystem's download is complete, the subsystem resets and the downloaded code begins execution. The default firmware image for the Sun Fire 880 internal storage subsystem is in: /usr/platform/SUNW,Sun-Fire-880/lib/images/int_fcbpl_fw.

-s

Save. The -s option is used to save the downloaded firmware in the FEPROM. If -s is not specified, the downloaded firmware will not be saved across power cycles.

The -s option does not apply to the SPARCstorage Array controller as it always writes the downloaded firmware into the FEPROM.

The -s option does not apply to the Sun Fire 880 internal storage subsystem as it always stores downloaded firmware in the flash memory.

When using the -s option, the download subcommand modifies the FEPROM on the subsystem and should be used with caution.

-w WWN

Change the SPARCstorage Array controller's World Wide Name. WWN is a 12-digit hex number; leading zeros are required. The -w option applies only to the SPARCstorage Array. The new SPARCstorage Array controller's image will have the least significant 6 bytes of the 8-byte World Wide Name modified to WWN.

enclosure_name new_name enclosure | pathname

For the SENA, if more than one enclosure has been specified, concurrent hot insertions on multiple busses can be performed. With no arguments to the subcommand, entire enclosures or individual FC_AL drives can be inserted. For the RSM, only one controller can be specified. For the SENA or the Sun Fire 880 internal storage subsystem, this subcommand guides the this subcommand guides the user interactively through the hot insertion steps of a new device or chain of devices. If a list of disks was entered it will ask the user to verify the list of devices to be inserted is correct, at which point the user can continue or quit. It then interactively asks the user to insert the disk(s) or enclosure(s) and then creates and displays the logical pathnames for the devices.

For the RSM, the following steps are taken:

• Quiesce the bus or buses which support quiescing and unquiescing.
• Inform the user that the device can be safely inserted .
• Request confirmation from the user that the device has been inserted.
• Unquiesce the bus or buses which support quiescing and unquiescing.

When a SENA is addressed, this subcommand causes the SENA subsystem to go into the power-save mode. The SENA drives are not available when in the power-save mode. When an Enclosure Services card within the SPARCstorage Array is addressed, the RSM tray is powered down. When a drive in a SENA is addressed the drive is set to the drive off/unmated state. In the drive off/unmated state, the drive is spun down (stopped) and in bypass mode. This command does not apply to the Sun Fire 880 internal storage subsystem.

-F

The force option only applies to the SENA. Instructs luxadm to attempt to power off one or more devices even if those devices are being used by this host (and are, therefore, busy).

Warning: Powering off a device which has data that is currently being used will cause unpredictable results. Users should attempt to power off the device normally (without -F) first, only resorting to this option when sure of the consequences of overriding normal checks.

power_on enclosure[,dev]..

Causes the SENA subsystem to go out of the power-save mode, when this subcommand is addressed to a SENA. There is no programmatic way to power on the SPARCstorage Array RSM tray. When this subcommand is addressed to a drive the drive is set to its normal start-up state. This command does not apply to the Sun Fire 880 internal storage subsystem.

probe [ -p ]

For the SENA, Sun Fire 880 internal storage subsystem, and individual FC_AL devices, this subcommand guides the user through the hot removal of a device or devices. During execution it will ask the user to verify the list of devices to be removed is correct, at which point the user can continue or quit. It then prepares the disk(s) or enclosure(s) for removal and interactively asks the user to remove the disk(s) or enclosure(s).

For the RSM, the steps taken are:

• Take the device offline.
• Quiesce the bus or buses which support quiescing and unquiescing.
• Inform user that the device can be safely removed.
• Request confirmation from the user that the device has been removed.
• Unquiesce the bus or buses which support quiescing and unquiescing.
• Bring the (now removed) device back online.
• Remove the logical device name for the removed device.

For Multi-Hosted disk, the steps taken are:

• Issue the luxadm remove_device command on the first host. When prompted to continue, wait.
• Issue the luxadm remove_device command on the secondary hosts. When prompted to continue, wait.
• Continue with the remove_device command on the first host. Remove the device when prompted to do so.
• Complete the luxadm remove_device command on the additional hosts.

-F

Instructs luxadm to attempt to hot plug one or more devices even if those devices are being used by this host (and are, therefore, busy or reserved), to force the hotplugging operation.

Warning: Removal of a device which has data that is currently being used will cause unpredictable results. Users should attempt to hotplug normally (without -F) first, only resorting to this option when sure of the consequences of overriding normal hotplugging checks.

replace_device [ -F ] pathname

This subcommand applies only to the RSM. Refer to NOTES for limitations on hotplug operations. This subcommand guides the user interactively through the hot replacement of a device.

For the RSM, the steps taken are:

• Inform user that the device can be safely replaced.
• Request confirmation from the user that the device has been replaced.
• Unquiesce the bus or buses which support quiescing and unquiescing.
• Bring the device back online.

-F

Instructs luxadm to attempt to hot plug one or more devices even if those devices are busy or reserved, (that is, to force the hotplugging operation).

Warning: Removal of a device which has data that is currently being used will cause unpredictable results. Users should attempt to hotplug normally (without -F) first, only resorting to this option when sure of the consequences of overriding normal hotplugging checks.

reserve pathname

Reserve the specified disk for exclusive use by the issuing host. The pathname used should be the physical or logical pathname for the disk. If the pathname is of the SPARCstorage Array controller, then all of the disks in the SPARCstorage Array will be reserved.

This subcommand is included for historical and diagnostic purposes only.

set_boot_dev [ -y ] pathname

Set the boot-device variable in the system PROM to the physical device name specified by pathname, which can be a block special device or the pathname of the directory on which the boot file system is mounted. The command normally runs interactively requesting confirmation for setting the default boot-device in the PROM. The -y option can be used to run it non-interactively, in which case no confirmation is requested or required.
