Verify New Device Recognition

To verify the system recognizes the devices on the newly installed disk array:

1.

Power on the system.

2.

Log in to the system as

root

.

3.

Generate a file containing peripheral device information by entering

hinv –v > /tmp/hinv.info

4.

Display peripheral device information by entering

more /tmp/hinv.info

Example

#

more /tmp/hinv.info
