Displaying disk hardware configuration (service tools method)

To display your disk hardware configuration using the service tools method, follow these steps.

  1. Start DST or SST.
  2. From the Use Use Dedicated Service Tools (DST) menu, follow these steps:
    1. Select option 7 (Start a service tool).
    2. Select option 4 (Hardware service manager) on the Start a Service Tool display.
    or from the System Service Tools (SST) menu, follow these steps:
    1. Select option 1 (Start a service tool).
    2. Select option 7 (Hardware service manager) on the Start a Service Tool display.
  3. To print the hardware disk configuration, press F6 (Print configuration).
    If you are using SST, the output is sent to a spooled file. If you are using DST, output goes directly to a printer because spooling is not active. If your system already has a printer defined for DST, the output is sent to that printer. If you do not have a DST printer defined, you are prompted with a list of attached printers.
  4. To display the configuration, select option 2 (Logical hardware resources) from the Hardware Service Manager menu.
    From this display, you can select to show system bus, processor, or main storage resources.
  5. To see additional detail, type 5 (Display detail) in the Option column next to each controller and press the Enter key.
  6. If you have no other tasks to perform, end DST or SST.
