Subject: examples using sysfs attributes to scan and delete scsi_devices
Date: Tue, 8 Jul 2003 13:41:47 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20030708134147.A32189@beaverton.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20030708134016.A32161@beaverton.ibm.com>; from patmans@us.ibm.com on Tue, Jul 08, 2003 at 01:40:16PM -0700

Some sample usage of the delete and scan attributes. 

The system has one fastt200 (disk array) with 32 LUNs (4:0:0:*),
10 disk drives (4:0:1-10:0).

[root@elm3b79 root]# ls -l /sysfs/bus/scsi
total 0
--w-------    1 root     root            0 Jul  8 13:28 delete
drwxr-xr-x    2 root     root            0 Jul  8 04:04 devices
drwxr-xr-x    5 root     root            0 Jul  8 04:04 drivers
--w-------    1 root     root            0 Jul  8 13:08 scan
