Provides access to the serial DASD adapter.
The serdasda special file provides an interface to an attached Serial DASD adapter. This special file should not be opened directly by application programs (with the exception of diagnostics applications). The /dev/serdasda0, /dev/serdasda1, ... /dev/serdasdan files are the serdasda special files.
The description of the serial DASD subsystem device driver in AIX Technical Reference: Kernel and Subsystems Volume 1 provides information on using the Serial DASD adapter.
The description of the Serial DASD subsystem device driver in AIX Technical Reference: Kernel and Subsystems Volume 1 provides information on implementation specifics for the Serial DASD adapter.
The serdasda special file is part of Base Operating System (BOS) Runtime.
