Device files missing.

[Hans Hendriks_1]

When I do a ioscan -funC disk I see some disks (they come from my xp512) have missing device files. I think it are the latest disks witch are configured.
All the other disks, most also from my xp512, have device files.
This machine is in a 3 node cluster and on the other two machines I do not have this problem. The other two machines also use the same disks of the xp512 (all 3 machines must see the all the disks). Can someone help me.

Thanks a lot Bart.

Have you tried to run 'insf -e' to create your special files? Just thought that I would ask. I hope that this helps.

Hi I would definately try Jason's suggestion and see if your /dev files return.

Forgot to say, Best of luck to you.

Most likely, the new disks (actually, LUNs) created while the cluster was running so there is nothing to trigger HP-UX to discover the LUNs and create the device files. Start with ioscan -fCdisk to see if the disk addresses actually appear.

Now run insf -H 1/2/3/whatever

insf will add the device files for that specific address. Or you can run insf -e to create any missing files.
