tdiag%20disk%20status

To quote:
When users run prtdiag -v on the Enterprise 450
fully configured with disks they  can only see a max of 4 disks e.g.

Disk LED Status:OK = GREENERROR = YELLOW
DISK 18: [EMPTY]DISK 19: [EMPTY]
DISK 16: [EMPTY]DISK 17: [EMPTY]
DISK 14: [EMPTY]DISK 15: [EMPTY]
DISK 12: [EMPTY]DISK 13: [EMPTY]
DISK 10: [EMPTY]DISK 11: [EMPTY]
DISK  8: [EMPTY]DISK  9: [EMPTY]
DISK  6: [EMPTY]DISK  7: [EMPTY]
DISK  4: [EMPTY]DISK  5: [EMPTY]
DISK  2:    [OK]        DISK  3:    [OK]
DISK  0:    [OK]DISK  1:    [OK]


>From the OBP prompt:

ok setenv disk-led-assoc 0 x y
where x= 1 to 10 PCI slot where the lowest Ultrascsi cont is installed
where y= 1 to 10 PCI slot where the uppermost Ultrascsi cont is installed

For example, if ctrl cards are in slot 5 and 7 enter the following:
ok setenv disk-led-assoc 0 5 7

if there is only one ctrl installed in slot 5
ok setenv disk-led-assoc 0 5
ok reset
ok boot -r to take effect

Now run prtdiag -v

Disk LED Status:        OK = GREEN      ERROR = YELLOW
                DISK 18:    [OK]        DISK 19:    [OK]
                DISK 16:    [OK]        DISK 17:    [OK]
                DISK 14:    [OK]        DISK 15:    [OK]
                DISK 12:    [OK]        DISK 13:    [OK]
                DISK 10:    [OK]        DISK 11:    [OK]
                DISK  8:    [OK]        DISK  9:    [OK]
                DISK  6:    [OK]        DISK  7:    [OK]
                DISK  4:    [OK]        DISK  5:    [OK]
                DISK  2:    [OK]        DISK  3:    [OK]
                DISK  0:    [OK]        DISK  1:    [OK]

SunManagers,
    Part of my "prtdiag -v" displays:

Disk LED Status:        OK = GREEN      ERROR = YELLOW
                DISK 10: [EMPTY]        DISK 11: [EMPTY]
                DISK  8: [EMPTY]        DISK  9: [EMPTY]
                DISK  6: [EMPTY]        DISK  7: [EMPTY]
                DISK  4: [EMPTY]        DISK  5: [EMPTY]
                DISK  2:    [OK]        DISK  3:    [OK]
                DISK  0:    [OK]        DISK  1:    [OK]


>From this info I would gather I only have 4 disks in the server however,
when I run "format" it shows 9 disks.  I have 3 unused slots for disks at
this time.

Why the difference? Should I be worried?  I can't seem to find any
information that explains why I would have a difference.  THanks in
advance.  Will summerize.
