  scsicfg(1)                          CLIX                          scsicfg(1)



  NAME

    scsicfg - Displays SCSI configuration information

  SYNOPSIS

    scsicfg [-i additional_iops] [-q additional_quadscsis]

  FLAGS

    -i additional_iops
               Number of IOP boards on the system in addition to the default
               board.

    -q additional_quadscsis
               Number of Quad-SCSI boards on the system in addition to the
               default board.

  DESCRIPTION

    The scsicfg command displays location and identifying information for
    active Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) devices connected to the
    system.

    The scsicfg utility automatically scans the main SCSI controller and any
    additional Input/Output Processor (IOP) or Quad-SCSI boards loaded on the
    system.  The number of additional IOP or Quad-SCSI boards can be
    overridden by using the -i or -q flags, respectively.

    On Series 3000 and Series 4000 systems that contain one or more slave IOP
    boards, the -i flag is used to specify the number of additional boards to
    scan.

    On systems that contain more than one Quad-SCSI board, the -q flag is used
    to indication the number of additional Quad-SCSI board to check.

    The output produced by the scsicfg command contains the following
    information:

    IOP          Shows the IOP board number if more than one IOP board is
                 being displayed.  The values range from 0 to 3.  The IOP is
                 not displayed for systems that do not have slave IOPs.

    QS           Shows the Quad-SCSI board number and channel number.  The
                 first digit indicates the board number and ranges from 0 to
                 3.  The second digit indicates the channel number and ranges
                 from 0 to 3.

    SCSI         Specifies the SCSI where the device is located.  This value
                 ranges from 0 to 6.

    LUN          Is the logical unit number and has a value of 0 or 1.  LUN 1
                 is usually not used.

    Device Description
                 Specifies the class of device.  The following types are
                 available: Magnetic disk drive, Tape drive, Printer,
                 Processor, WORM optical disk drive, CDROM disk drive,
                 Scanner, Optical memory device, Changer device (jukebox), and
                 Communications device.

    Vendor       Specifies the maker or vendor of the device.  This
                 informaiton is provided by the device.

    Controller   Is a model or controller string identifying the device.  This
                 information is provided by the device.

    Firmware     Specifies the version of firmware being used by the device.
                 This information is provided by device.

  EXAMPLES

    This example shows some sample output from this command.  The IOPs are not
    displayed since the system on which command was run does not have slave
    IOPs.
