ioscan -k does not display all the disks configured

[listing]

Hi,
ioscan -k does not display all disks that are physcially presnt.(some are left out) But without -k all the disks are displayed. I saw the man page which refers to -k will display only kernel i/o hardware tree. How can i make the disks being displayed consistently with ioscan -k command.

[Jeeshan]

install the disk device driver using command

#insf

This is the author again..
ioscan -k lists the devices some times all of them . and some times leaves out some of them. I mean the o/p is not consistent.

No hot plugging / removing has been performed on the system. I am talking about 11i.v3. what could be the reason ??

[Jeeshan]

what is your server model and where is the disks? attached disk or SAN disk? if SAN, what is the model of SAN?

Me again.
yes it is a san disk and i am not sure about the model.. its on ia64 .

[Mark McDonald_2]

server model can be found with "model" command.

Hi,

ioscan â k ( output is generating from kernel ) try this

isnf
isnf â e

Then

ioscan â fun
or
ioscan â funC disk

What is your complete ioscan command?

[Fadia Almarei]

why you do not use these options

ioscan -funC disk .

this will gives you all the current disks on the server

Hi,
The complete ioscan command is "ioscan -knC disk". The problem is gone after a reboot. But i just wanted to know if this is a problem at all. Thanks all for the inputs.
