Note: For information on preconfigured zoning configurations, see: Predefined Zoning
Configurations on page 162.
d. IOM SAS Address: SAS Address associated with IOM B
Note: A comma should be placed after each bit of data in the IOM SAS Address that was
recorded. For example, if the IOM SAS Address output was 5000CCAB0300007C, the address
that should be added to the sg_senddiag command should be 50,00,CC,AB,03,00,00,7C.
c) The following are examples of completed sg_senddiag commands for IOM A and B.
• IOM A: sg_senddiag 3 --pf --raw=04,00,00,90,61,01,00,00,50,00,CC,AB,03,00,00,3C
• IOM B: sg_senddiag 106 --pf --raw=04,00,00,90,61,01,00,00,50,00,CC,AB,03,00,00,7C
5. Enable zoning on IOM A using the sg_senddiag command.
a) Issue the command for IOM A that was built in the previous step.
b) Enabling a predefined zoning configuration will reset the SAS connector ports which may cause the
sg_senddiag command to return a status of DID_TIME_OUT or DID_SOFT_ERROR. Despite the error,
the zoning configuration will be enabled. The zoning configuration can be verified after both IOMs have
been zoned.
send diagnostic: transport: Host_status=0x03 [DID_TIME_OUT]
Driver_status=0x00 [DRIVER_OK]
6. Enable zoning on IOM B using the sg_senddiag command.
a) Issue the command for IOM B that was built in the previous step.
b) Enabling a predefined zoning configuration will reset the SAS connector ports which may cause the
sg_senddiag command to return a status of DID_TIME_OUT or DID_SOFT_ERROR. Despite the error,
the zoning configuration will be enabled. The zoning configuration can be verified after both IOMs have
been zoned.
send diagnostic: transport: Host_status=0x03 [DID_TIME_OUT]
Driver_status=0x00 [DRIVER_OK]
7. Verify the zone groups for each of the host using the smp_discover_list command.
a) Issue the following command to locate the expander handles:
ls /dev/bsg
