Re: Viewing LUN info to detect new disks on superdome

you can run ioscan -fnC disk.

if you not yet run insf -e or reboot the server, you can see a disk without devices. that is your new disk

If your storage is XP you can download xpinfo to know the device and LUN configuration.

Or you must compare with /etc/lvmtab and output from ioscan.

thanks for th ereply,

what it is, is that I have been given specific luns ie (LUN 59E (device ID 114) LUN 59F ( device ID 115 ), but after analyzing #ioscan -fnC disk I cannot determine which disk the adress is refering to. Any ideas?

I think your storage not XP storage.

Send your /etc/lvmtab and ioscan -fnC disk output.

thanks

It's kind of fun to do the impossible
