HP-UX
1. Rescan the devices:
ioscan -fnC <disk|tape>
2. Generate device files:
insf -e
3. Verify the new devices:
ioscan -funC <disk|tape>
AIX
1. Rescan the devices ):
cfgmgr -vl fcsx
Where x is FC adapter number
2. Verify the new devices:
lsdev -Cc <disk|tape>
Linux
The rescan in Linux is HBA-specific.
For QLogic:
echo scsi-qlascan > /proc/scsi/qla<model#>/<adapter instance>
For Emulex:
sh force_lpfc_scan.sh lpfc<adapter-instance>
For each identified device, run the following:
echo scsi add-single-device <host> <channel> <ID> <lun> > /proc/scsi/scsi
Solaris
1. Determine the FC channels:
cfgadm -al
2. Force rescan :
cfgadm -o force_update -c configure cx
Where x is the FC channel number
3. Force rescan at HBA port level:
luxadm -e forcelip /dev/fc/fpx
4. Force rescan on all FC devices:
cfgadm -al -o show_FCP_dev
5. Install device files:
devfsadm
6. Display all Qlogic HBA ports
luxadm -e port
7. Display HBA port information
luxadm -v display <WWPN>
8. Display HBA port information
luxadm -e dump_map
Notes If one specific SANclient is missing a drive, please verify that your zoning is correct. Please also make sure the host initiator and VTL™s target ports are showing online via the Fibre Channel switch. (Check HBA link light and check the cable.)
