Well, I got a few answers which were helpful, but unfortunately didn't get me to where I needed to go. Responses are below. The thing that worked was from Sun (thanks to a friend!): http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/document.do?assetkey=1-9-40133-1 Email responses: Eric Sisson wrote: I have a 280R with an A1000 attached running Solaris 9. However, I installed Solaris before connecting the A1000. I never have seen your problem. You may want to try the OS installation with the A1000 powered off. Brad Morrison wrote: I'd disconnect the A1000 during the install, then connect it and boot -r afterwards. Matthew Stier wrote: During power on self test, the OpenBoot Prom generates a device tree, based upon what it sees. During a reconfiguration reboot, (the initial boot after installation is a reconfiguration reboot) the operating system reads this device tree, and compares it against it has already assigned (as recorded in the /etc/path_to_inst file) and adds new controllers, targets and disks based upon what it sees. Since most of these devices are connected to the PCI bus, there is a 'pci0-probe-list' parameter to the eeprom. You can tweak this to get the scan order you want. Mike Salehi wrote: The SCSI address of the A1000 can be set and I think its a dial on the back, you may also have a mixed signal, I think A1000 were wide and we usually had them on their own card, anyway change the A1000 address, so a reset-all at the OK? then do a show-scsi-all and then pass go. _______________________________________________ sunmanagers mailing list sunmanagers@sunmanagers.org http://www.sunmanagers.org/mailman/listinfo/sunmanagersReceived on Sat Mar 24 00:44:02 2007
