Additional Notes

Device reconfiguration procedures for FC and FCoE

 

There are three methods to reconfigure the devices added or removed

 

in the system.

 

Method 1:

 

Reboot the system :

 

shutdown -r now

 

Method 2:

 

Remove and reinsert the modular driver

 

For example:

 

modprobe -rv qla2400

 

modprobe -v qla2400

 

Method 3:

 

Use QLogic script to dynamically scan the devices. QLogic has the

 

QLogic FC HBA LUN Scan Utility which is available from the

 

EMC-approved site on the QLogic website.

 

 

 

 

Note: It is highly recommended that a rescan of the SCSI bus should not be

 

conducted while you are running IO. The dynamic discovery and insertion of

 

LUNs while IO is running on applications may cause unforeseen errors to

 

occur on the IO in flight. The benefit of the dynamic scanning of the SCSI bus

 

is to reduce the need to reboot the server.

Usage examples

 

 

To re-scan all the adapters, enter one of the following commands:

 

# ./ql-dynamic-tgt-lun-disc.sh

 

# ./ql-dynamic-tgt-lun-disc.sh -s

 

# ./ql-dynamic-tgt-lun-disc.sh --scan

 

To re-scan and remove any lost LUNs, enter one of the following

 

commands:

 

# ./ql-dynamic-tgt-lun-disc.sh -s -r

 

# ./ql-dynamic-tgt-lun-disc.sh --scan --refresh

 

To invoke the menu, enter one of the following commands:

 

# ./ql-dynamic-tgt-lun-disc.sh -i

 

# ./ql-dynamic-tgt-lun-disc.sh --interactive
