Retrieving device paths in a Linux server with an H730p/H740p controller
Retrieve the OS device paths in a Linux-based VxFlex Ready Node server with an
HBA330 controller.
In Linux servers, the OS device path is in the following format: /dev/sdX, where
a sequential letter of the alphabet in lowercase, in single or multiple format. For
example: a, b, c...z, followed by aa, ab, ac...zz.
Procedure
1. Log in to the server.
2. Display the device list:
ls –l /dev/disk/by-path/
Output similar to the following appears:
3. In the output, search for the lines starting with:
pci-0000:0#:00.0-sas-
# is a number. (For example: 2 or 3.)
where
4. In the lines you just located, search for sdX at the end of the lines.
The devices paths are /dev/sdX. Use these paths when adding devices to a
VxFlex OS SDS.

Ready Node server with an H730p/H740p controller.
Before you begin
Ensure that you have root access to the server.
In Linux servers, the OS device path is in the format: /dev/sdX, where X is a
sequential letter of the alphabet in lowercase, in single or multiple format. For
