Viewing dual storage IOA attributes

This topic collection provides the details for using the Auxiliary Storage Hardware Resource Detail display to obtain dual storage I/O adapter (IOA) configuration information.

About this task

Perform the following steps to view details about your adapters.

Procedure

  1. Select Start a service tool on the Use System Service Tools (SST) menu.
  2. Select Hardware service manager on the Start a Service Tool menu.
  3. Select Logical hardware resources (buses, IOPs, controllers) on the Hardware Service Manager menu.
  4. Select System bus resources on the Logical Hardware Resources on the System Bus menu.
  5. Type 9 (Resources associated with IOP) in front of the adapter that you want.
  6. Type 5 (Display detail) in front of Storage IOA to get details about the storage IOA.
    This is an example of the display:
