The system fails to recognize all disk drives

1. Reboot the system by entering the following command:
#/usr/sbin/shutdown
The system reboots and displays the ok prompt:

4.Check all disk drive connections to make sure they are secure.

Power on the SCSI devices first, beginning with the device at the end of the chain and working your way toward the system unit. Then power on other devices, again working your way toward the system unit.
Finally, power on the system unit itself and the system monitor. When you power on the system unit, the system begins to boot. Interrupt the boot by pressing
6.To verify that the system sees all the disk devices, including any new drives, enter one of the following commands:
