Parameters

-s: (Optional) Displays only device adapter IDs. You cannot use the -l and the -s parameters together.
-l: (Optional) Displays the same output as the default output. You cannot use the -l and the -s parameters together.
-encl enclosure_ID: (Optional) Displays the device adapters that are associated with the specified processor complex or I/O enclosure.
-server server_ID: (Optional) Displays only device adapters that are associated with the specified server.
-dapair dapair_ID: (Optional) Displays only device adapters that are associated with the specified device adapter pair.
-state online | offline | failed | loopx: (Optional) Displays only device adapters that are in the specified state.
storage_image_ID . . . | -: (Required) Displays device adapters for the specified storage images. A storage image ID includes manufacturer, type, and serial number. You must separate multiple IDs with spaces.; Note: ID ranges cannot be specified.; If you specify the dash (-), this parameter information is automatically supplied.

Report field definitions

The following supplies information that you can use to help you understand the output that is generated from this command.

ID

Specifies the unique identifier of the device adapter.

State

Specifies the current availability state of the specified device adapter.

Loc

Specifies the I/O enclosure and the device adapter location.

The I/O enclosure location format is Uttt.mmm.ppsssss.

The device adapter location format is Pn-Cn where Pn indicates the Planner number (1) and Cn indicates the card number (1 - 6).

FC

Specifies the feature code that is used to order the specified device adapter.

Server

Specifies the server or device adapter group to which the device adapter is assigned.

DA pair

Specifies the storage unit ID that is followed by the device adapter pair ID that is associated with the specified device adapter. The device adapter pair identifier is a two-digit decimal number, with no leading zeros. Device adapter pairs are located in I/O enclosure pairs. Device adapter pair ID implies I/O enclosure location.

An even numbered device adapter pair ID indicates the first device adapter pair in an I/O enclosure pair. An odd numbered device adapter pair ID indicates the second device adapter pair in an IO enclosure pair.

Interfaces

Specifies the four interface IDs that are associated with the FC-AL ports.
