Troubleshooting 

 
Use the 

errpt

 command to identify the cause of failure.  The 

lsdev

 command will provide the location of the component.  For 

example, if 

errpt

 identifies a loose cable on device hdisk1, 

lsdev

 

will give an address similar to: 
 

hdisk1   Available 00-02-01     Cambex SCSI... 

 
and 

lsattr -El hdisk1

 will show: 

 

clr_q         no                 Device CLEARS it’s 
                                 Queue on error 
location                         Location Label  
lun_id        0x0                Logical Unit Num ID  
node_name     0x20000080e511b744 FC Node Name  
pvid          none               Physical Volume id 
q_err         yes                Use QERR bit 
q_type        simple             Queuing TYPE 
queue_depth   16                 Queue DEPTH  
reassign_to   120                REASSIGN time out 
rw_timeout    30                 READ/WRITE timeout  
scsi_id       0x0                SCSI ID    
start_timeout 60                 START UNIT timeout 
ww_name       0x23000080e511b744 FC World Wide Name 

 
Which indicates that the adapter is in card location 00-02, and the 
drive is at SCSI ID 0, LUN 0.
