No, scsi_rescan_device won't work of bringing a new device online or
an old one offline. It's just when attributes on an existing device
change. So to get this sorted out nicely we'd really need to know
whether AifEnContainerChange means online/offline/clear. BTW, why/how
does the hardware interact with partitioning on aacraid?
And what's the exact meaning of AifDenMorphComplete? Is there some
hardware documentation on adaptec's website?
