Displaying the Smart Array controller configuration
To display the physical disks connected to a Smart Array Controller and configured logical drives
and spare drives, use the
saconfig /dev/cissX
command. Replace
X
with the device file
number for the Smart Array Controller.
The Connector/Enclosure/Bay, WWID, size, and status of each physical disk attached to the Smart
Array Controller is included in the
saconfig /dev/cissX
output. If logical drives are configured
on the Smart Array Controller, a detailed description of those drives appears:
# saconfig /dev/ciss5
