Yeah, I get that; what about "chio status"?
eng-backup# chio params
/dev/ch0: 7 slots, 1 drive, 1 picker
/dev/ch0: current picker: 0
eng-backup# chio status
picker 0:
slot 0: <ACCESS,FULL>
slot 1: <ACCESS,FULL>
slot 2: <ACCESS,FULL>
slot 3: <ACCESS,FULL>
slot 4: <ACCESS>
slot 5: <ACCESS,FULL>
slot 6: <ACCESS,FULL>
drive 0: <ACCESS,FULL>
