deciphering scsi card in an E450

2007-12-25 1:47:00

Hello,

We've acquired an E450 (that is about 1000 miles away) and we are
looking at adding some more drives to it (it has 4 in it now). From
what I've been able to determine, it doesn't look like it has the
standard E450 8 slot scsi expansion cards in it, but it's got
something.

AVAILABLE DISK SELECTIONS:
0. c0t0d0 <SUN36G cyl 24620 alt 2 hd 27 sec 107>
/pci at 1f,4000/scsi at 3/sd at 0,0
1. c0t1d0 <SUN36G cyl 24620 alt 2 hd 27 sec 107> oradata3
/pci at 1f,4000/scsi at 3/sd at 1,0
2. c5t0d0 <SUN36G cyl 24619 alt 2 hd 27 sec 107>
/pci at 6,4000/pci at 2/scsis at 4/mscsi at 2,0/sd at 0,0
3. c5t2d0 <SUN36G cyl 24620 alt 2 hd 27 sec 107>
/pci at 6,4000/pci at 2/scsis at 4/mscsi at 2,0/sd at 2,0

The device path for the first two disks is what I'm familiar with:

/pci at 1f,4000/scsi at 3/sd at 0,0:a,raw
/pci at 1f,4000/scsi at 3/sd at 1,0:a,raw

But the other two show:

/pci at 6,4000/pci at 2/scsis at 4/mscsi at 2,0/sd at 0,0:a,raw
/pci at 6,4000/pci at 2/scsis at 4/mscsi at 2,0/sd at 2,0:a,raw

prtidag shows:

Bus Freq
Brd Type MHz Slot Name Model
--- ---- ---- ---- --------------------------------
----------------------
SYS PCI 33 3 pciclass,058000
SYS PCI 33 3 pci1044,a501
SYS PCI 33 7 pciclass,001000 Symbios,53C875
SYS PCI 33 10 TSI,gfxp GFXP

So, my question is, does anyone know what kind of card that is in
slot3, that gives a scsi path of ...mscsi... in it? And can it
handle hot swapping in new drives?

thanks, andrew
