inquire
inquire - list devices availableSYNOPSIS
inquire [ -a b.t.l ] [ -cl ] [ -N ] [ -s ] [ -T [ -t ] ]
DESCRIPTION
The inquire program lists SCSI devices available. The inquire program
returns INQUIRY data either for the named SCSI device (with the -a
option), or for all SCSI devices attached to the system. In addition to
the standard SCSI inquiry data, inquire now returns serial number
information obtained from the Vital Product Data (VPD) pages supported
by the devices that are being queried. There may be anywhere from zero
to eight different identifiers for each device, depending on which of
the VPD pages that particular device supports.
Sample output including serial number information:

Lines starting with S/N: represent the device's serial number as
returned by VPD page 80 hex.
Lines that start with a four character prefix plus a colon are
those returned in SCSI-3 format on VPD page 83 hex. The four
character prefix tells which of the various SCSI-3 Device Iden-
tifiers it represents.
ATNN: ASCII Text identifier of unspecified format
describing the device itself (usually Vendor, Product, Serial
number)
ATPN: ASCII Text identifier of unspecified format
describing the port that you are connected to the device
through (not commonly used)
IENN: An IEEE 64-bit identifier (EUI-64) describing
the device itself (shown in hexadecimal format)
IEPN: An IEEE 64-bit identifier (EUI-64) describing
the port you are connected through (shown in hexadecimal for-
mat)
WWNN: A Fibrechannel identifier (World Wide Node Name)
describing the device itself (shown in hexadecimal format)
WWPN: A Fibrechannel identifier (World Wide Port Name)
describing the port you are connected through (shown in hex-
adecimal format)
PORT: The relative port number that you are connected
through. Port "A" would return a value of 1, Port "B" a value
of 2...
RESV: The device returned a combination of Association
and Identifier Type bits that was reserved at the time this
code was written.
UNKN: The device returned information that this program
was unable to decipher
OPTIONS
-a b.t.l
Selects a specific ordinal SCSI address, where b is the logical
SCSI bus, t is the SCSI target, and l is the SCSI logical unit
number (LUN) on that target. The option is not compatible with
-N. See libscsi(1).
-c (NOTE: USE WITH CAUTION) This flag directly sends the SCSI
inquiry command to the device and may cause unforseen errors
when there is other activity on the bus.
-l Performs a complete LUN search for all SCSI adapters in the sys-
tem. This argument is accepted on all systems, but does not
have any effect on HP-UX systems because the method used to scan
for available devices on HP-UX systems always shows all acces-
sible devices. For systems other than HP-UX, the normal behav-
ior is to start checking at LUN 0 for SCSI devices. The first
empty LUN found will end the search for a given target ID. With
the -l option, all LUNs present on all target IDs for all SCSI
busses in the system will be checked for devices. This can take
a very long time and should therefore only be used when neces-
sary. For example, a Fibre Channel adapter can support 126 tar-
get IDs, each of which may have 80 or more LUNs. Checking all
LUNs on this single adapter may take over 10 minutes. This
option has no affect when -N present.
-N Performs a device discovery on NDMP Tape Server. User will be
prompted for NDMP Tape Server name, NDMP user name and password.
NDMP protocol exports only Jukeboxes and Tape Devices. No other
device types will be discovered. When NDMP Tape Server is run-
ning at version 3 or higher and supports NDMP_CON-
FIG_GET_SCSI_INFO and NDMP_CONFIG_GET_TAPE_INFO interfaces,
inquire will display the INQUIRY data for all the available
Jukeboxes and Tape Devices. In all other cases, inquire will
prompt for Jukebox handle and get the INQUIRY data for that
Jukebox. This option is not compatible with -a. See -T for more
details.
Communicating to devices on NDMP Server 'server-2', this may take a while...
scsidev@178.0.0:QUALSTARTLS-6110 2.09|Autochanger (Jukebox), c178t0l0
S/N: 44B43014
scsidev@178.0.1:QUANTUM DLT8000 0119|Tape, c178t0l1
S/N: CX938P2489
IENN:0000000000000000
Sample output with NDMP Tape Server running at V2:
# inquire -N
Enter NDMP Tape Server name: ? molokai
Enter NDMP user name: ? root
Enter 'root' password on NDMP host 'molokai' (characters will not be echoed):
Communicating to devices on NDMP Server 'molokai', this may take a while...
NDMP Tape Server 'molokai' does not support of auto-discovery of SCSI and TAPE Devices.
Will perform the operation on a single Jukebox in which you are interested.
Enter NDMP Jukebox handle: ? mc1
scsidev@-1.2.0:EXABYTE Exabyte 215 2.3 |Autochanger (Jukebox)
S/N: 71000073
-s Suppresses the collection of serial number information by
inquire, so that inquire returns the same output that it did
before the serial number information was added. This option is
primarily added so that any scripts that rely on the previous
output behavior of inquire can be used with only minor modifica-
tion.
-T This option is only valid when -N is present else it is ignored.
The option will display the NDMP Tape Devices in a non standard
format. The Device Model and Device Handle(s) will be displayed.
This option is useful on NDMP Tape Servers that do not support
NDMP_SCSI_OPEN interface on Tape Devices (For example, NetApp).
Sample output with -T option on NetApp Filer.
# inquire -N -T
Enter NDMP Tape Server name: ? molokai
Enter NDMP user name: ? root
Enter 'root' password on NDMP host 'molokai' (characters will not be echoed):

LIMITATIONS
The inquire program always uses the built-in system drivers to test
SCSI devices. The device type or path name printed by the inquire pro-
gram may be incorrect for devices that require special, third-party
drivers.
