Displaying Veritas controller information


When utilizing Veritas’s DMP utilities, a controller, enclosure or DMP nodename is required when performing most actions. To list the controllers on a server, the vxdmpadm(1m) utility can be invoked with the “listctlr” option:

$ vxdmpadm listctlr all

CTLR-NAME ENCLR-TYPE STATE ENCLR-NAME
=====================================================
c3 EMC ENABLED EMC0
c2 EMC ENABLED EMC0
c0 Disk ENABLED Disk

The vxdmpadm(1m) utility also has a “getctlr” option to display the physical device path associated with a controller:

$ vxdmpadm getctlr c2

LNAME PNAME
===============
c2 /pci@80,2000/lpfc@1
