adapters. The controller number (the dks value in /dev/dsk/dks*d*l*s*) depends on the server

configuration, and a different value is assigned per each column.

The mapping cannot be done when these conditions exist:

• Disk array devices and other types of devices are connected in the same loop

• Information for unused devices remains in the server system

• Multiple ports participate in the same arbitrated loop
