How can i a new disk on system?

Hi,

I try to connect my system Hp-ux on a storage MA8000 through San switch brocade.

I set up the zoning on switch, and when i execute the ioscan command, i see the storage.
# ioscan -fn
...
ctl 33 0/7/0/0.99.67.0.0.0.0 sctl CLAIMED DEVICE DEC HSG80CCL
/dev/rscsi/c30t0d0
target 27 0/7/0/0.99.67.0.0.1 tgt CLAIMED DEVICE
ctl 34 0/7/0/0.99.67.0.0.1.0 sctl CLAIMED DEVICE DEC HSG80CCL
/dev/rscsi/c30t1d0

...

But there is no disk device...
just ctl, sctl and rscsi device.

How can i configure this disk?

Thanks.

Try "insf -e -C disk" or "insf -e -H . This will re-create the devices for you.
Never preceed any demonstration with anything more predictive than "watch this"

Run # isnf -e to create device files for new devices. It will also update /etc/ioconfig and the kernel tree.

Ignore the 2nd line of my reply, please. Thant happens only when ioinit executes insf. thanks.

Re: How can i a new disk on system?

hi,

i try this command : insf -e -H 0/7/0/0.100.64.0.0.10.0

i receive the follow message :
insf: Installing special files for sctl instance 78 address 0/7/0/0.100.64.0.0.10.0

there is an entry with ctl but no with sdisk.

When i try #insf -e -C disk

insf: Installing special files for sdisk instance 0 address 0/0/1/1.2.0
insf: Installing special files for sdisk instance 1 address 0/0/2/0.2.0
insf: Installing special files for sdisk instance 2 address 0/0/2/1.2.0
insf: Installing special files for sdisk instance 4 address 0/4/0/0.96.65.0.0.0.0
insf: Installing special files for sdisk instance 6 address 0/4/0/0.96.65.0.0.0.1
insf: Installing special files for sdisk instance 9 address 0/4/0/0.96.65.0.0.0.2
...

There isn't any reference to the special file installed below. ( instance 78 for example ).
