E4500 which hme?

I have an E4500, Solaris 2.6 with two I/O boards, each with an hme.

hme0 is active only.

I wanted someone to use hme1 for private network (crossover cable to another server) but they report both I/O board hme ports have cables coming from them!

The server is 350 miles away from me! So what I want to know is:

Using Solaris commands, can I work out which I/O board hme0 is on?

prtconf has told me that hme instance #0 seems associated with sbus instance #0 (there are sbus 1,2,3 as well).

So how do I map sbus instance 0 onto the board address? The I/O boards are in slots 1 and 3 (the back, top two slots).

Cheers.

Take a look at InfoDoc 22759. If you can't access it plaese print the output of prtconf and we'll try and help you.

In /etc/path_to_inst you should be able to see the path for hme instance 0 and instance 1.Devices listed on /sbus @ 2 or 3 would be I/O board in slot 1 which would be "normal" for hme0. Devices listed on /sbus @ 6 or 7 would indicate I/O Board in slot 3

Perfect!

/etc/path_to_inst was the answer,

"/<a href="mailto:sbus&#64;3" target="_blank">sbus@3</a>,0/SUNW,<a href="mailto:hme&#64;3" target="_blank">hme@3</a>,8c00000" 0 "hme"

<a href="mailto:sbus&#64;3" target="_blank">sbus@3</a>,0 is on I/O board 1

Thanks.
