Connector Tasks: Rescan Connector
Does my controller support this feature? See Supported Features.
On a SCSI controller, this task rescans the controller connectors to verify the
currently connected devices or to recognize new devices that have been added
to the connectors. Performing a rescan on a connector is similar to performing
a rescan on the controller. For information on scheduling a rescan, see Rescan
to Update Storage Configuration Changes.
NOTE: Rescan is not supported on non-RAID SCSI controllers. You must reboot the
system before Storage Management can see configuration changes on non-RAID
SCSI controllers. Otherwise, configuration changes are not reflected in the Storage
Management graphical user interface (GUI).
To rescan a controller connector:
1
Expand the Storage tree object to display the controller objects.
2 Expand a controller object.
3 Select a Connector object.
4 Select the Information/Configuration subtab.
5 Select Rescan from the Available Tasks drop-down menu.
6 Click Execute .
