NAME

SYNOPSIS

9       lsvio [-s | --scsi] [-e | --ethernet] [-d | --devices]
10             [-p<database-filename> | --path=<database-filename> |
11             -z<database-archive> | --zip=<database-archive>] [-h | --help]

DESCRIPTION

15       This  program is part of the lsvpd package for Linux. This package is a
16       (partial) reimplementation of AIX's lsvpd and related commands.
17
18
19        lsvio lists virtual I/O adapters and devices. lsvio retrieves informa‐
20       tion  from  lsvpd's  hardware inventory database. Therefore, the vpdup‐
21       date(8) command must have been executed prior to running lsvio.

OPTIONS

25       -s|--scsi
26              Lists names and physical locations of virtual SCSI adapters.
27
28
29       -e|--ethernet
30              Lists names and physical locations of virtual Ethernet adapters.
31
32
33       -d|--devices
34              Lists virtual SCSI devices and their associated adapters.
35
36
37       -p<database-filename>|--path=<database-filename>
38              Use <database-filename>  as  the  hardware  inventory  database,
39              rather  then the default database. Path specified must be a full
40              path including filename. (/var/lib/lsvpd/db).
41
42              This option is useful for producing output for previous hardware
43              inventory databases that have been replaced by the system.
44
45
46       -z<database-archive>|--zip=<database-archive>
47              Use  <database-archive>  as  the  hardware  inventory  database,
48              rather then the default directory (/var/lib/lsvpd/db).  The  ar‐
49              chive has been compressed using gzip(1).
50
51              This  option is useful for producing output for old hardware in‐
52              ventory databases that have been archived by the system.
53
54
55       -h|--help
56              Display a help screen and quit.

FILES

60       /var/lib/lsvpd/db
61              Database file used by lsvio.

BUGS

65       lsvio is only supported under Linux 2.6 on systems with virtual I/O. On
66       other systems lsvio will probably exit with an error message.
