adding new HDD alpha 4000

[Michael Schulte zur Sur · Accepted solution]

Hi,

have you got a new controller?
run
sizer -n conf
compare /tmp/conf with your config file in /sys/conf. The name of the config file is most likely your hostname.
Please post the lines of both files from:
config vmunix swap generic
until the last contoller item.
Maybe you will have to build a new kernel to see the bus 2.

So let us guess again....
Bus #2 was never used before ?
The new drive is the only one on that bus ?
Is that scsi bus properly terminated ?
When you boot, do you see any messages on scsi2 in /var/adm/messages ? --> If, yes, please post.
Did you recently add a new SCSI-interface for that bus #2 ? -->If, yes, you must boot from genvmunix and generate a new kernel with doconfig..
