System devices list (lscfg command)

Edit online

To display the name, location, and description of each device found in the current configuration, use the lscfg command. The list is sorted by device location.

For example, to list the devices configured in your system, at the prompt, type the following:

lscfg

The system displays output similar to the following:

INSTALLED RESOURCE LIST
 
The following resources are installed on your machine. 
 
+/- = Added/Deleted from Diagnostic Test List. 
*   = NOT Supported by Diagnostics.

The device list is not sorted by device location alone. It is sorted by the parent/child hierarchy. If the parent has multiple children, the children are sorted by device location. If the children have the same device location, they are displayed in the order in which they were obtained by the software. To display information about a specific device, you can use the -l flag. For example, to list the information on device sysplanar0, at the prompt, type the following:

lscfg -l sysplanar0

The system displays output similar to the following:

DEVICE          LOCATION     DESCRIPTION
  
sysplanar0      00-00        CPU Planar

You can also use the lscfg command to display vital product data (VPD), such as part numbers, serial numbers, and engineering change levels. For some devices, the VPD is collected automatically and added to the system configuration. For other devices, the VPD is typed manually. An ME preceding the data indicates that the data was typed manually.

For example, to list VPD for devices configured in your system, at the prompt, type the following:

lscfg -v

The system displays output similar to the following:

INSTALLED RESOURCE LIST WITH VPD
