the install kernel will fabricate a wwid. See the I/O Configuration section for more informa-
tion.
disk[hw_path|index|dev_spec
].phys_loc
Evaluates to the physical location of the disk specified by the hardware address path, index
value or device specifier. Note that not all disks have a physical location, only SAS disk drives
do. See the I/O Configuration section for more information.
disk[hw_path|index|dev_spec
].device_id
Evaluates to the device identifier of the disk specified by the hardware address path, index
value or device specifier. Note that this is an attribute set by system administrators and is not
guaranteed to be unique. See the I/O Configuration section for more information.
disk[hw_path|index|dev_spec
].dev_spec
Evaluates to the device specifier of the disk specified by the hardware address path, index
value or device specifier. See the I/O Configuration section for more information.
disk[hw_path|index|dev_spec
]
disk[*]
disk[*=
N]
Evaluates to a string that contains the hardware path(s) of the disk(s) referenced. In the first
usage shown, the string contains the hardware path of the disk matching the specific hw_path ,
the index value or the device specifier. In the second usage, the string is a list of all hardware
paths of disks on the system. Similarly, the third usage results in a string of hardware paths
for the first N disks. The second and third usages may be useful when defining a list of poten-
tial values a variable may hold and display in the UI. For example:
enum _my_var
_my_var = { disk[*] }
vgdisk[index]
Evaluates to a disk that has been already defined to be part of the volume group using the
physical_volume keyword. The
vgdisk keyword may be used in the same manner as
the
disk keyword, but within a volume_group definition only. The index parameter is
used to index into the list of disks that make up the volume group. The first disk in the
volume group may be referenced using an index value of 0. For example, in the root volume
group, you may reference the root disk using vgdisk[0]. This keyword is useful in mapping
logical volumes to disks within the volume group when you do not want to use a hw_path .
num_disks
Evaluates to the number of disks discovered on the system.
num_vgdisks
Evaluates to the number of disks specified to be part of the volume group being defined. This
keyword should be used only within a volume_group definition after all
physical_volumes
for the volume group have been defined. It evaluates to zero if used
outside a
volume_group definition.
memory
Evaluates to the amount of memory installed on the system.
can_run_32bit
can_run_64bit
Boolean values that indicate if the system’s hardware is capable of running a 32-bit or 64-bit
HP-UX operating system respectively.
has_ps2
Boolean values that indicate if the system has a PS2 keyboard/mouse interface.
has_usb
Boolean values that indicate if the system has a USB (Universal Serial Bus) interface.
hardware_model
Evaluates to a string containing the equivalent of the getconf _CS_MACHINE_MODEL
command. If that is unsuccessful, then the equivalent of the uname -m command is used
instead.
model
Evaluates to a string containing the equivalent of the model command, which is typically
