Hello all,

Hello Kevin



[...]


I noticed the other day that when I generate a system plan there is a
table called Drives that gets built. Despite the fact that there are four
drives in the machine, that list is empty. Is this bad? I'm wondering if
the RAID controller died or something, but I figured the machine would
have called home if that was the case. Can anyone shed some light on
this?

This is a capability of the HMC software V7. If the i5/OS partition is
started, the HMC should gather all the devices information.

Until V6, the HMC was not able to see any device attached to any PCI card.
It did see only buses, IOP, and IOA but not devices.

It should work and you should get your disk drives in the related table of
a system plan.
Make sure that the HMC software is accurate with the needed PTFs and that
the Power Hypervisor firmware (FSP) is accurate also.

If you do not see the drives, it does not mean that something is wrong, but
that the HMC is unable to receive the information from the i5/OS partition.
