Restarting the Linux server, Verifying new device recognition

Page 19 highlights

Restarting the Linux server To recognize the new device(s), restart the Linux server as follows: 1. Power on the display of the Linux server. 2. Power on all devices other than the Linux server. 3. Confirm ready status of all devices. 4. Power on the Linux server. Verifying new device recognition 1. Verify that the FCA driver is installed using the lsmod command. 2. View the device information in the /proc/scsi/scsi file. Example #cat /proc/scsi/scsiAttached devices: Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00 Vendor: HP Model: OPEN-9 Rev: 2105 Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02 Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 01 Vendor: HP Model: OPEN-9 Rev: 2105 Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02 Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 02 Vendor: HP Model: OPEN-9 Rev: 2105 Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02 Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 03 Vendor: HP Model: OPEN-9 Rev: 2105 Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02 3. Verify that the system recognizes the disk array partitions by viewing the /proc/partitions file. Example #cat /proc/partitions major minor #blocks name 8 0 7211520 sda 8 1 7181087 sda1 8 2 28272 sda2 8 16 7211520 sdb 8 17 7181087 sdb1 8 18 28272 sdb2 8 32 7211520 sdc 8 33 7181087 sdc1 8 34 28272 sdc2 8 48 7211520 sdd 8 49 7181087 sdd1 8 50 28272 sdd2 8 64 7211520 sde 8 65 7181087 sde1 8 66 28272 sde2 8 80 7211520 sdf 8 81 7173022 sdf1 8 82 32130 sdf2 rio rmerge rsect ... 1 3 8 ... 0 0 0 ... 0 0 0 ... 1 3 8 ... 0 0 0 ... 0 0 0 ... 1 3 8 ... 0 0 0 ... 0 0 0 ... 1 3 8 ... 0 0 0 ... 0 0 0 ... 1 3 8 ... 0 0 0 ... 0 0 0 ... 1 3 8 ... 0 0 0 ... 0 0 0 ...

Restarting the Linux server
To recognize the new device(s), restart the Linux server as follows:
1.
Power on the display of the Linux server.
2.
Power on all devices other than the Linux server.
3.
Confirm ready status of all devices.
4.
Power on the Linux server.
Verifying new device recognition
1.
Verify that the FCA driver is installed using the
lsmod
command.
2.
View the device information in the
/proc/scsi/scsi
file.
Example
#cat /proc/scsi/scsiAttached devices:
Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00
Vendor: HP
Model: OPEN-9
Rev: 2105
Type:
Direct-Access

3.
Verify that the system recognizes the disk array partitions by viewing the
/proc/partitions
file.
