Hi All,
I have a removable drive sleeve that I mount SATA
drives mounted in that attaches to an internal SATA
port. I use it backup my system to removable
drives. The mechanism works identical to USB
flash drives.
With one exception. A drive MUST be in the
carriage when I boot up. Otherwise, if I insert
a drive AFTER the system is booted up, the drive
is invisible to the system.
Now I have seen Clonzilla re-educating the system
as to what drives are where. Is there a way to
goose Fedora to do the same? Is there
a way to rescan without having to reboot?
Many thanks,

nope, that ain't it
I have an external dock with a couple of SATA HDDs in it, which is
normally spun down. The drives are RAID-1 but you can ignore that. To
spin it up I do:
SLOT1=/dev/disk/by-id/wwn-0x50014ee058f952e1 # Usually /dev/sdd
SLOT2=/dev/disk/by-id/wwn-0x50014ee212458648 # Usually /dev/sde
spunup() { # At least one is spun up, so RAID should work
if sudo hdparm -C $SLOT1 $SLOT2 |grep -q active/idle ; then
return 0
else
return 1
fi
}
spinup() {
sudo hdparm $SLOT1 $SLOT2 >> /dev/null 2>&1
for t in 1 2 ; do # Make sure it's up
spunup && return
sleep 5
done
}
poc
How is the "external dock" attached to your
computer? sata? USB?
