Smith Sent: Monday, June 21, 2004 6:06 PM To: linux-raid@vger.kernel.org Subject: 3ware drive hotswapping I'm testing the ability of a 3ware 8506 card to hotswap SATA drives in JBOD mode, and I'm having problems. When I remove the drive, the device becomes inaccessible -- that's obvious. However, when I reinsert the drive, I can't access it. I've tried echoing 'scsi remove-single-device W X Y Z' followed by 'scsi add-single-device W X Y Z'; the remove causes the /dev/sd* devices to disappear, but the add does not create any /dev/sd* entries (I'm using devfs -- though trying to access the devices through a mknod'd block device doesn't help either). What is the correct procedure to get a 2.6 kernel to integrate drives?
