Marvin,

 

                As you are using esx 3, you can use "esxcfg-nics -l"
command in service console for identifying ur NIC cards. This command
ouputs details of NIC cards present in the system. You can identify each
card by its link state.

 

                /proc/pci file or lspci -vvv command provides more
details of ur system PCI devices . 

 

 

Thanks, 
Krishnaprasad

Subject: mapping a pci to a particular expansion slot

 

I am trying to map the pci address of a device to the actual piece of
hardware for documentation/maintenance purposes.

I have two fiber channel cards and two external nic cards.  I know the
pic address of each device however, since i have two identical of each,
i'm not sure which is which.  

 

Any help would be appreciated.

I have a PE 2900 Quad Core running esx 3.0.1
