Summery: deciphering scsi card in an E450

Hello,

Thanks to Pascal Grostabussiat, Boe Franklin, and Joe Ritter who
replied. Turns out what was in there was a SRC/P SCSI RAID Card
(X6602A), and the #2 and #3 drives under format are actually mirrored
to two other drives. And yes the drives were hot-swappable, and we
got the additional ones added in.

For more info:

The card GUI is at: /opt/SUNWhwrdg/dptmgr
and the cli: /opt/SUNWhwrdg/dptutil

Thanks all,

Andrew
