Subject: Hot plugging a disk in runtime
Date: Mon, 20 May 2002 13:19:53 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3CE8CDC9.7070200@galileo.co.il> (raw)

Hi list,

I have few questions withregards to hot-plugging disk into a running 
system -

1.. How is it possible to signal SCSI mid-layer (or other layers) of a 
presence of a newly hot-plugged disk ?

2.. Can an adapter's device driver trigger SCSI subsystem to scan 
channels for new LUNs / Targets ?

3.. Is this can be handled in a kernel level ? is there a user space 
application that can be triggered to start scanning adapters (obviously 
through SCSI subsystem) and registering new LUNs / Targets etc... ?

4.. How does SCSI API allow insertion of a new disk ?

5.. Is there a generic way of hot-plugging disks ?

Thank you alot,
Rabeeh
