which device nodes used by ips.o module?

which device nodes used by ips.o module?

[Yaroslav Popovitch]

I could not find information about device nodes which are used by ips.o 
module(IBM ServeRAID 4Mx).
I don't have hardware, as result I cannot check in experiment.
Would you help me ...

Cheers,YP

By device nodes do you mean /dev/foo? In which case its just 
/dev/sd[abc...]

Check dmesg

dmesg should output something like:

  Vendor: WDIGTL    Model: ENTERPRISE        Rev: 1.91
  Type:   Direct-Access                      ANSI SCSI

 sdc: unknown partition table

If you forget channel, HBA, or ID your device is on look in
/proc/scsi/scsi which should contain something like:

Attached devices: 
Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00

  Vendor: COMPAQPC Model: ST34371N         Rev: 0472
  Type:   Direct-Access                    ANSI SCSI
revision: 02

  Type:   CD-ROM                           ANSI SCSI
revision: 02


All you have to do is match the HBA, channel, id, lun
tuple with the dmesg entry "Detected scsi disk..."
