The hardware path can loosely be interpreted as:
System Bus Location / Local Bus Number / PCI Device / PCI Device Function
Each path marked “SCSI bus cntlr” represents a separate SCSI Bus. Each path marked “Fibre channel”
represents a separate fibre channel port. The Vendor ID, Device ID, Path and Bus/Slot information may be
used to uniquely identify each Fibre Channel Device Adapter Card type. The Vendor and Device IDs of Fibre
Channel Adapter card supported are listed in Table 4-2.
As a reference for our example, the list of supported PCI-SCSI adapter cards with Vendor ID and Device ID is
also listed in Table 4-3
.
From the information previously gathered from the Information Menu, I/O Function, we can see that the
system has the following cards connected:
