The Configure Added/Replaced Devices function runs the configuration manager on
the parent adapters that had child devices added or removed. This function ensures
that the devices in the configuration database are configured correctly.
Standalone Diagnostics has restrictions on using the SCSI Hot Plug Manager. For
example:
vDevices being used as replacement devices must be exactly the same type of device
as the device being replaced.
vNew devices may not be added unless a device of the same FRU part number
already exists in the system, because the configuration information for the new
device is not known after the Standalone Diagnostics are booted.
You can run this task directly from the command line. See the following command
syntax:
diag -d device-T"identifyRemove"
OR
diag [-c] -d device -T"identifyRemove -a [identify|remove]"
