The answer to my question was: c0t3d0
thanks to Steven Ruby [steven.ruby@emacdigital.com]

and also:   Hichael Morton [mh1272@yahoo.com]

who gave me this answer:

 ok probe-scsi-all

will show all recognized hard drives--external and internal.  the
output will be the physical path.  sun has a section on how to
determine which drive the physical path is point to.  a search on
"physical path" would probably show it.  If you can't find, post the
phyical path to the list and ask (not demand) help in deciphering it.

the controller number is determined by the i/o boards slot position and
the card position on the i/o board.  the sun system engineer handbook
may also have this information.

if you have a service contract with sun for the machine, call them, ask
for help, and they will help you.

Subject: which controller number is my disk on a E4500 ????


Hello Managers:
I have an E4500 which does not have any internal disk, as a result of that I
had connected
two external unipack to it which i had assigned target id 2 and target id 3.

Eventhought the target id. is obvious here the controller number is not and
that's what I will
like to find out which is the controller number where these two disks are
connected.

I need to find out controller number because I'm trying to build this
machine of a jumpstart server
and i need to find out which controller number it's as I need to specify
controller number on jumpstart
file configuration.

This server does not have an OS loaded, I'm trying to loaded for first time.
I had already try
controllers c1 c2 and c3 without no success at all. My jumpstart
installation keep on failing
stating the following:

Field 2 - Disk is not valid on this system ( c1t3d0s0).

Any way to figure out contoller on which these disks are on the server from
the Ok. prompt?
Thanks,
Vinnie.
