Physical and Logical Devices

The SOL subsystem consists of several physical and logical devices in the ODM configuration database.

Device Description
slc (serial link chip) There are two serial link adapters in each COMBO chip. The slc device is automatically detected and configured by the system.
otp (optic two-port card) Also known as the serial optical channel converter (SOCC). There is one SOCC possible for each slc. The otp device is automatically detected and configured by the system.
op (optic port) There are two optic ports per otp. The op device is automatically detected and configured by the system.
ops (optic port subsystem) This is a logical device. There is only one created at any time. The ops device requires some additional configuration initially, and is then automatically configured from that point on. The /dev/ops0 special file is created when the ops device is configured. The ops device cannot be configured when the processor ID is set to -1.
