Device Map Examples
As shown in the diagrams below, the OpenBoot PROM displays the following parts
in sequence for each PCI card in an External I/O Expansion Unit:
■
The I/O Unit (IOU) slot in the server
■
Multiple devices inside the I/O boat
■
The PCI card in the I/O boat
■
Disk drives, SCSI ports, or networks that connect to the PCI card
C.2.1
Device Map for PCI Express Cards
This is an example of a complete device path for a PCI Express (PCIe) card in a PCI
Express boat:
IOU_slot
is the IOU slot to which the link card for a External I/O Expansion Unit is
connected. See

.
shows the device path for a PCI Express card. The device path is the
accumulation of ports from the host data bus (item 1) to the PCI card (item 6).
