On Solaris and Irix, there is an auxillary file in /etc that maps the hardware path to a controller to a controller instance number. This lets you name a device based on the controller instance number, and to possibly move to a different physical slot it if needed. Some examples: Irix /etc/ioconfig.conf: 2 /hw/module/1/slot/io9/fibre_channel/pci/0/scsi_ctlr/0 This says that SCSI controller 2 is really a Fibre Channel controller in slot 9 (on an Origin 2000). Solaris /etc/path_to_inst: "/pci@4,4000/scsi@3" 0 "qla2200" This says that the QLA2200 Fibre Channel controller in slot 3 of PCI bus 4,4000 is controller 0 (zero) for the qla2200 driver. "/pci@4,4000/scsi@3/sd@0,3" 737 "sd" This says that SCSI target 0 will be unit 737 for the sd driver. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
