This email shows an example of two domains.
The first domain has only two devices: the SAS initiator
and a SAS end device (a disk).
The second domain has expanders, SAS disks, a SATA II disk
and a SATAPI disk.
A succinct and full listings of the sysfs tree are shown
using the tree(1) program.
Sample configuration
--------------------
Directly attached devices, cascaded expanders and
wide ports
1. SAS disk on HA phy 0, forming a narrow port, port 0.
2. Expander on HA phys 4, 5, 6, and 7, forming
a wide port, port 1.
3. Port 0, narrow, of phy 0, is formed between
the host adapter and a SAS end device with SAS port identifier
(aua/aka, SAS address) 500000e000031c12. This device
has a single LU, with LUN 0, which is a disk device.
4. Port 1, wide, of phys 4, 5, 6 and 7, is formed between
the Host adapter's phys 4-7 and the expander with SAS
address 50001c1716010600, Expander A.
5. Expander A, 50001c1716010600, has 4 devices attached to it:
- An expander with SAS address 50001c1071609c00,
expander B (using a 2 link wide port, see below).
- A SATA II disk, 50001c1716010603, using the expanders'
STP/SATA bridge.
- An SES device, LUN 0 of 50001c171601060d.
- And a SAS disk, LUN 0 of 5000c50000513329.
6. Expander B, 50001c1071609c00, has 3 devices attached to it:
- A SATAPI device, 50001c1071609c02, using the expander's
STP/SATA bridge.
- A SAS disk, LUN 0 of 5000c50000102a65.
- And an expander, 5005076a000001e0, expander C,
(using a 2 link wide port, see below).
7. Expander C, 5005076a000001e0, has 3 devices attached to it:
- A SAS disk, LUN 0 of 5000c50000513385.
- An SES device, LUN 0 of 5005076a000001ed.
- A SAS disk, LUN 0 of 5c50000000409c11.
