Do you mean like "Hey buddy, what's up?"
If so, よお相棒、元気？（よおあいぼう、げんき？）or よお相棒、調子どう？（よおあいぼう、ちょうしどう？） sounds more natural. Both are casual expressions.
どうしたの or どしたの is more like "What's wrong with you?" or "What happened ". I mean, it sounds as if you were talking to someone who is in trouble, rather than just greeting.
