Hello,

When I run cfgmgr on an Aix 6.1 system it gives me the following error,

#cfgmgr
#Method error (/usr/lib/methods/cfgscsidisk -l hdisk20 ):
0514-082 The requested function could only be performed for some
of the specified paths.
This error occurs for all the storage luns present in the system.

Any thoughts on why this is happening?

I am using Aix 6.1 6100-01 at Service Pack 6.

Thanks,
Kannan

Which storage do you have?

Have you loaded the drivers provided by the vendor?

All in the supported cabling configurations according to the Serial attached SCSI cable planning guide.

and I am still getting this errot when running cfgmgr;
Method error (/usr/lib/methods/cfgscsidisk -l hdisk4 ):

Any additional help will be greatly appreciated.

I would say that it is a generic error. If all looks good in your systems ( disks adapters are all available etc) then ignore this.

If this is a p6 mma/570 and you have split SAS controller and you see both controllers Internal and external (connected via YO cable) you should be fine.
