can not add disks

[yalin zhao]

I attached a disk array (HDS 5700 Disk Series)to our HP-UX Model E45 machine.After I boot the server, I cannot see the array but the local disks only by issue the command "ioscan -fnC disk" see following details of the output:

# ioscan -fnC disk
Class I H/W Path Driver S/W State H/W Type Description
===============================================================
disk 0 56/52.2.0 disc3 CLAIMED DEVICE TOSHIBA CD-ROM XM-3401TA
/dev/dsk/c2t2d0 /dev/rdsk/c2t2d0
/dev/floppy/c2t2d0 /dev/rfloppy/c2t2d0
disk 1 56/52.5.0 disc3 CLAIMED DEVICE HP C2247M1
/dev/dsk/c2t5d0 /dev/rdsk/c2t5d0
/dev/floppy/c2t5d0 /dev/rfloppy/c2t5d0
disk 2 56/52.6.0 disc3 CLAIMED DEVICE HP C2247M1
/dev/dsk/c2t6d0 /dev/rdsk/c2t6d0
/dev/floppy/c2t6d0 /dev/rfloppy/c2t6d0

But when I check the device files in /dev/rdsk, I can see the following:

# ll /dev/rdsk
total 0
crw-r----- 1 bin sys 177 0x005000 Mar 17 12:02 c0t5d0
crw-r----- 1 bin sys 177 0x005100 Mar 17 12:02 c0t5d1

crw-r----- 1 bin sys 177 0x026000 Aug 30 2001 c2t6d0

it seems that I have more disks on this system after I attached the disk.But if I check any of the disks other than the local ones, it shows that no such disks. see following:

# diskinfo /dev/rdsk/c0t5d1
diskinfo: can't open /dev/rdsk/c0t5d1: No such device or address

Anyone can tell me what the problems were and how to get it fixed? Thanks in advance.

Check to see that the SCSI termination is correct. Has the unit got correct power?
