Why doesn't L&TT for Tru64 see some of my devices?

Whenever you connect or remove a device, you must reconfigure the CAM and hardware manager

CAM and hardware manager layers:

1.

Close L&TT.

2.

Use the following command to check for stale devices:

/sbin/hwmgr show scsi -full | grep stale

3.

Remove any stale devices. If you are not sure whether a device is stale or not, remove it
anyway. Devices can be rediscovered later. Use the following command to remove a device:

/sbin/hwmgr -delete scsi -did

<SCSI ID>

4.

Rescan the SCSI bus.

/sbin/hwmgr scan scsi

5.

Rescan the CAM layer.

/sbin/scu scan edt

Run the following commands to verify the SCSI devices:

/sbin/hwmgr show scsi

/sbin/scu show edt

7.

Restart L&TT.

To detect a surrogate SCSI device, you must configure the modules.conf file for the new device
you have connected. After modifying this file, reboot the computer so that the new device is

reconfigure the modules.conf file:

1.

Login as root.

2.

Edit the following file:

vi /etc/modules.conf

3.

Add the following line as appropriate:

add options scsi_mod max_scsi_luns=128

4.

Reboot the computer.
