Chapter 238

(initiator).
Refer to the ioscan (1M) manpage for details on using ioscan to list
hardware path information.
This hardware path format is used only on Superdome systems.
hd_fabric Driver
The HP-UX 11i install kernel does not include a /stand/system entry
for hd_fabric, a new 11i driver. However, this entry is added to the
system file as part of the installation process on Superdome systems.
When the /usr/sbin/mk_kernel command builds a kernel, the
hd_fabric driver is built into the HP-UX kernel.
The hd_fabric driver supports partition configuration commands
(/usr/sbin/parstatus and others) and related functionality in the
Partition Manager, although it is not required for booting Superdome
system partitions.
This affects all three Superdome systems -- Superdome 16-way,
Superdome 32-way, and Superdome 64-way. HP-UX kernels built with
hd_fabric present in the system file will not cause compatibility issues
on non-Superdome systems.
