command to scan Enterprise storage Lun disk in Solaris

I just installed IBMsdd on Solaris diver along with the patches recommended. I also installed 2 - 2Gigs qlogic fiber cards & the corresponding pkges for the cards.

What command can I use to scan this LUN disks from my Soalris servers. Solaris doen't seem to be seeing this disks presented on it.

The storage device is IBM ESS mode 800.

Thanks

I have not used ibm jbod equipment with sun but I think for such 3rd party kinds of storage installations you may need to modify the entries within sd.conf under /kernel/drv

as what to modify you need to refer to the installation manual, before you modify anything first take a backup cp sd.conf sd.conf.org

then after u're done modifying the file, touch reconfigure follows by reboot


if you stll can't see the disks try going to "ok" prompt do a probe-scsi-all or probe-fcal-all

That would be unusual on fiber, it's normally only needed in SCSI attaches cases where more than one scsi initiator is on the same channel.
