ioscan

When I run disk
(on my n4000 machine running 64 bit 11i)
I see the three devices connected to the machine but one of them does not have the /dev/rdsk/c*d*t* line.

Why is that?

Thanks

Gopi

Hi:

Have a look at the man pages for (1M) 'insf'. For example:

# insf -H 8/4.0.0

...to create device files at hardware path 8/4.0.0

Regards!

Check if you got any reported error from ioinitrc. Maybe ioinit doesn't know how to handle that device. You can run
# insf -e
to re-create all of 'em and see if there is any reported error.

Hi Gopi,
execute 'insf -e' to recreate device files...

use
ioscan -funkC disk

in future, adding the -k option will result in a quick response.

without -k only when you've added HW.

and insf -e -C disk

Later,

HI
The command "#insf -e" will recreate the missing devices.

Thanks.

Well, mksf did not do the job.

It created a /dev/dsk entry but not a /dev/rdsk entry.

created both.

Thanks
