Verify a Hard Drive

1. Determine if you replaced or installed a hard drive in a running server or not.
If you replaced or installed a hard drive in a server that is running (if you
■
hot-serviced the hard drive), then no further action is necessary. The Oracle
Solaris OS auto-configures the hard drive.
If you replaced or installed a hard drive in a powered-down server, then
■
continue with these procedures to configure the hard drive.
If you hot-serviced an NVMe drive, it should automatically power up and
■
attach. If not, power up and attach the drive manually.
# hotplug enable /SYS/DBP/NVME0
Check that the drive's state has changed to ENABLED.
# hotplug list –lc
2. If the OS is shut down, and the drive you replaced was not the boot device, boot
the OS.
Depending on the nature of the replaced drive, you might need to perform administrative tasks
to reinstall software before the server can boot. Refer to the Oracle Solaris OS administration
documentation for more information.
3.
At the Oracle Solaris prompt, type the cfgadm -al command to list all drives in the
device tree, including any drives that are not configured.
# cfgadm -al
This command helps you identify the drive you installed. For example:
