(formerly CMD Technology Inc) SiI 3114 [SATALink/SATARaid] Serial ATA Controller and want to use hotswap on it. Disks are visible in /proc/scsi/sci : Attached devices: Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00 Vendor: ATA Model: WDC WD2500JD-40G Rev: 09.0 Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 05 Host: scsi1 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00 Vendor: ATA Model: WDC WD2500JD-40G Rev: 09.0 Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 05 Host: scsi2 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00 Vendor: ATA Model: WDC WD2500JD-40G Rev: 09.0 Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 05 Host: scsi3 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00 Vendor: ATA Model: WDC WD2500JD-40G Rev: 09.0 Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 05 I'm trying to use the following command: echo "scsi remove-single-device 2 0 0 0" > /proc/scsi/scsi before removing the rack and change it by another with a maxtor drive. When I'm launching : echo "scsi add-single-device 2 0 0 0" > /proc/scsi/scsi I always have : Host: scsi2 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00 Vendor: ATA Model: WDC WD2500JD-40G Rev: 09.0 Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 05 in /proc/scsi/scsi intead of : "Model: MAXTOR..." What's wrong ? Is hotswap supported on Linux for this controller ? Thank you, GaLi -- _ ASCII ribbon campaign ( ) - against HTML email X & vCards / \
