For a particular SCSI device, you can decode the SCSI bus ID and the drive’s SCSI ID and LUN ID
from the lunpath hardware path. For example:
Class I Lun H/W Path Driver S/W State H/W Type Health Description
tape 0 64000/0xfa00/0x16 estape CLAIMED DEVICE online HP DAT160
0/3/1/1.0x3.0x0
The lunpath hardware path for the tape drive is “0/3/1/1.0x3.0x0”.
SCSI bus ID is
0/3/1/1” (including all the numbers separated by “/”).
From the remaining
0x3.0x0” portion:
Tape drive SCSI ID = 3 (decimal value from 0x3)
Tape drive SCSI LUN = 0 (decimal value from 0x0)
Adding stape and schgr (autoloader driver) to the kernel
For HP-UX 11i v1, 11i v2
If your tape drive or autoloader does not appear in the ioscan listing or is listed with H/W Type
UNKNOWN” you may need to install the appropriate drivers.
