Hi Ross, in general, it's just as easy to identify drives attached to this card as it is to identify drives attached to any other card. The output from 'iostat -En' will help, along with careful observation of the drive's serial number and devid. You can find the devid (which, last I checked, is guaranteed to be unique) by looking for the "devid" property associated with your specific device. :name pci1000,3150 sd (block, de00000463) :compatible (de00000482TBL) | scsiclass,00.vATA.pST3320620AS.rD | | scsiclass,00.vATA.pST3320620AS | | scsa,00.bmpt | | scsiclass,00 | | scsiclass | :sas-mpt :pm-capable 0x1 :inquiry-vendor-id ST3320620AS :inquiry-revision-id 3.AAD :inquiry-device-type 0 :inquiry-product-id ST3320620AS :devid id1,[EMAIL PROTECTED] :class scsi :target 0 :lun 0 :device-blksize 0x200 :fm-ereport-capable :ddi-kernel-ioctl :ddi-failfast-supported :pm-hardware-state needs-suspend-resume :pm-components (de0000046eTBL) | NAME=spindle-motor | | 0=off | | 1=on | :lba-access-ok :inquiry-serial-no 3QF0EAFP :devfs-path /[EMAIL PROTECTED],0/pci10de,[EMAIL PROTECTED]/pci1000,[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED],0 :driver-name sd :binding-name scsiclass,00 :bus-addr 0,0 :instance 3 :_class block :name sd hth, James -- Senior Kernel Software Engineer, Solaris Sun Microsystems http://blogs.sun.com/jmcp http://www.jmcp.homeunix.com/blog _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
