Each SATA controller's and port multiplier's device port is represented by an attachment point in the device tree. SATA devices, connected and configured in the system are shown as the attachment point name extension. The terms "attachment point" and "SATA port" are used interchangeably in the following description.
Attachment points are named through ap_ids. All the SATA attachment points ap_id consist of a string in the following form:
sataX/P[.M][::dsk/cXtYd0]
where X
is the SATA controller number
is the SATA controller's device port number (0 to 31)
is the port multiplier's device port number (0 to 14) the port multiplier host port number (15). It is used only when the port multiplier is attached to the SATA controller's device port.
identifies the attached SATA device
is a target number
In general, the device identifier is derived from the corresponding logical link for the device in /dev. Because only one LUN (LUN 0) is supported by the SATA device, the "d" component of the device string will always have number 0 (zero).
For example, the logical ap_id of the device port 4 of the port multiplier connected to the device port 5 of the SATA controller 2 would be:
sata2/5.4
If the SATA disk or CD/DVD device is connected to this attachment point, and the device is configured, the ap_id would be:
sata2/5.4::dsk/c2t645d0
The cXtYd0 string identifying a device has one-to-one correspondence to the device attachment point.
A simple listing of attachment points in the system will include all SATA device ports and attached devices. For example:
#cfgadm -l Ap_Id Type Receptacle Occupant Condition sata0/0::dev/c0t0d0 disk connected configured ok sata0/1::dev/c0t1d0 disk connected configured ok sata0/2::dev/c0t2d0 cd-dvd connected configured ok sata0/3 sata-port empty unconfigured ok sata1/0 sata-port disconnected unconfigured unknown sata1/1 sata port disconnected unconfigured unknown sata1/2 sata port empty unconfigured ok sata1/3.15 sata-pmult connected configured ok sata1/3.0::dev/c0t512d0 disk connected configured ok sata1/3.1 sata-port empty unconfigured ok sata1/3.2 sata-port empty unconfigured ok sata1/3.3 sata-port empty unconfigured ok usb0/1 unknown empty unconfigured ok usb0/2 unknown empty unconfigured ok
See cfgadm(8)for more information regarding listing of attachment points.
The receptacle state for attachment point at the SATA port have the following meanings: empty
The SATA port is powered-on and enabled. No device presence was detected on this port.
The SATA port is not enabled or the SATA device presence was detected but no communication with the device was established, or the port has failed.
The SATA device is detected on the port the communication with the device is established.
The occupant (device attached to the SATA port) state have the following meanings: configured
The attached SATA device is configured and ready to use by the operating system.
No device is attached, or the SATA device attached to the SATA port was not yet configured. To configure it, run the command "cfgadm -c configure ap_id".
The attachment point (SATA port) condition have the following meanings: ok
The SATA port is powered-on and enabled, and is ready for use.
The SATA port failed. It may be disabled and/or powered-off by the system. It is unusable and its condition is unknown. It may be due to the device plugged-in.
The SATA port is disabled and its condition is unknown.
A "state table" is the combination of an attachment point receptacle state, an occupant state, and an attachment point (SATA port) condition. The valid states are: empty/unconfigured/ok
The SATA port is enabled and active. No device presence was detected.
The SATA port is enabled and a device presence was detected but no communications with the device was established.
The SATA Port is disabled and its condition is unknown.
The SATA Port is disabled and unusable. The port was disabled by the system due to a system-detected failure.
The SATA Port is enabled and active. A device presence was detected and the communication with a device was established. The device is not configured to be used by the OS.
The device is present and configured, and is ready to use by the OS.
The following generic functions are defined for the SATA hardware specific library. For SATA port attachment point, the following configuration state change operations are supported: connect
Enable (activate) the SATA port and establish the communication with an attached device. This operation implies powering-on the port if necessary.
Unconfigure the attached device, if it is not already unconfigured, and disable (deactivate) the SATA port. A subsequent "connect" command enables SATA port operation but does not bring a device to the "configured" state.
Configure new device for use by the operating system if it is not already configured. This command also implies connect operation, if necessary.
Unconfigure the device connected to the SATA port if it is not already unconfigured.
Not supported.
SATA specific help can be obtained by using the help option with any SATA attachment point.
The -l option works as described in cfgadm(8). When paired with the -v option, the "Information" field contains the following SATA-specific information:
Mfg: manufacturer string
Product: product string
No: product Serial Number
No hardware specific options are currently defined.
Attachment points of class SATA can be listed by using the select suboption. See cfgadm(8).
Perform self-test of the SATA port, if supported by the SATA controller. If a port self-test operation is not supported by the SATA controller, an error message is issued.
Perform hardware specific function. Some of the following commands used on the SATA ports or the SATA controller may affect any SATA devices that have been attached, as noted. ap_id refers to SATA port or the entire SATA controller, as noted. If the operation implies unconfiguring a device, but it cannot be unconfigured (that is, the device contains a mounted filesystem), an error message is issued and the operation is not performed. An error message will be also issued if the SATA controller does not support specified operation. sata_reset_device ap_id
Reset the SATA device attached to ap_id SATA port. The SATA port state does not change.
Reset the SATA port specified by ap_id. If a SATA device is attached to the port, it is also reset. This operation may be also performed on the port to which a port multiplier is connected. If a port multiplier is connected to the SATA controller port, the SATA devices attached to the port multiplier may not be reset
Reset SATA controller specified by the controller number part in ap_id and all attached devices and re-enumerate all connected devices, including port multipliers and devices connected to port multipliers' device ports. This operations implies unconfiguring all attached devices prior to the operation. Any newly enumerated devices will be left unconfigured.
Force the deactivation of the port when all else fails. This is meant as an emergency step; use with caution.
Force the activation of a port. This is meant for emergency situations on a port which was deactivated to recover from errors.
Perform self-test operation on the SATA controller. This operation implies unconfiguring all devices and resetting the SATA controller.
Execute in verbose mode. The following Transitions table reports the state transitions resulting from the -c operations and hotplugging actions:

The following command configures a disk attached to SATA controller 0, port 0:
example# cfgadm -c configure sata0/0
This command should be issued only when there is a device connected to the SATA port.
Example 2 Unconfiguring a Disk
The following command unconfigures a disk attached to SATA controller 0, port 3:
example# cfgadm -c unconfigure sata0/3::dsk/c0t3d0
The device identifying string is shown when the attachment point receptacle state is "connected" and occupant state is "configured".
Example 3 Encountering a Mounted File System While Unconfiguring a Disk
The following command illustrates encountering a mounted file system while unconfiguring a disk:
example# cfgadm -c unconfigure sata1/5::dsk/c01t35d0
The system responds with the following:
cfgadm: Component system is busy, try again: failed to offline: /devices/pci@0,0/pci8086,244e@1e/pci1095,3124@1/sd@5,0 Resource Information ------------------ -------------------------- /dev/dsk/c1t5d0s0 mounted filesystem "/mnt"
Hardware specific library for generic SATA hot plugging.
Hotplugging operations are not supported by all SATA controllers.
If SATA connectors are the hot-pluggable type and the SATA controller supports hotplugging, a SATA device can be hotplugged at any time. The system detects the event and establishes the communication with the device. The device has to be configured by the explicit "cfgadm -c configure ap_id" command.
If the SATA connectors are the hot-pluggable type and the SATA controller supports hotplugging, unplugging a device without unconfiguring it may result in system hang or data loss. If a device is unconfigured but receptacle state is not in a disconnected state, unplugging a device from the SATA port will result in error message.
