Beware of Ghost
Names
Setup Checklist step 10
If a disk device is moved from one controller to another, the disk
obtains a new address. The old address is retained as a ghost name,
and a mapping is created between the old address and the new
address. The original device node names do not change. Before
configuring the driver, make sure no ghost names are present by
issuing this command:
/sbin/sdighost -l ENTER
At the end of the device list you should see the following:
UX:sdighost: INFO: Currently, no names are in use as Ghost Names
If ghost names are present, issue this command:
/sbin/sdighost -r ENTER
