Verifying the AIX device driver software

Learn how to verify the AIX® device driver is installed for a PCI adapter.

To verify that the AIX device driver for an adapter is installed, do the following steps:

  1. If necessary, log in as root user.
  2. At the command line, type lslpp -l devices.xxxxxxxxxx where xxxxxxxxxx is the device package name.
  3. Press Enter.
If the adapter device driver is installed, the following is an example of the data that is displayed on the window.
File set Level State Description
Path: /usr/lib/objrepos devices.xxxxxxxxxx 5.3.8.0 COMMITTED Adapter name software

Verify that the file sets are installed at the AIX version level you are running. Level 5.3.8.0 is an example. If no data is displayed on your screen, the adapter device driver was not installed correctly. Try reinstalling the driver.
