LSVIO(8) | LSVIO(8) |
NAME¶
lsvio - list virtual I/O adapters and devices
SYNOPSIS¶
lsvio [-v | --version] [-s | --scsi] [-e | --ethernet] [-d | --devices] [-p<database-filename> | --path=<database-filename> | -z<database-archive> | --zip=<database-archive>] [-D | --debug] [-h | --help]
DESCRIPTION¶
This program is part of the lsvpd package for Linux. This package is a (partial) reimplementation of AIX's lsvpd and related commands.
lsvio lists virtual I/O adapters and devices. lsvio retrieves
information from lsvpd's hardware inventory database. Therefore, the
vpdupdate(8) command must have been executed prior to running
lsvio.
OPTIONS¶
- -v|--version
- Prints the version of tool.
- -s|--scsi
- Lists names and physical locations of virtual SCSI adapters.
- -e|--ethernet
- Lists names and physical locations of virtual Ethernet adapters.
- -d|--devices
- Lists virtual SCSI devices and their associated adapters.
- -p<database-filename>|--path=<database-filename>
- Use <database-filename> as the hardware inventory database, rather
than the default database. Path specified must be a full path including
filename. (/var/lib/lsvpd/vpd.db).
This option is useful for producing output for previous hardware inventory databases that have been replaced by the system.
- -z<database-archive>|--zip=<database-archive>
- Use <database-archive> as the hardware inventory database, rather
than the default directory (/var/lib/lsvpd/). The archive has been
compressed using gzip(1).
This option is useful for producing output for old hardware inventory databases that have been archived by the system.
- -D|--debug
- Display extra information about the devices. For example, sysfs location, device-tree node etc., is displayed.
- -h|--help
- Display a help screen and quit.
FILES¶
- /var/lib/lsvpd/vpd.db
- Database file used by lsvio.
BUGS¶
lsvio is supported since Linux 2.6 on systems with virtual I/O. On other systems lsvio will probably exit with an error message.
