Assigning SCSI Device IDs
Assigning SCSI Device IDs
Before assigning a SCSI device ID to your drive, you need to check your
existing SCSI device IDs. To determine which SCSI device IDs are available
for your device, use the ioscan command in a terminal window:
1 In a terminal window, enter the following at the prompt:
/usr/sbin/ioscan -f
After a few moments, the ioscan utility lists all of the SCSI I/O devices it could
find. The list appears similar to the following:
