There are some "remove" flags in rescan-scsi-bus.sh: https://github.com/hreinecke/sg3_utils/blob/d4dbbede04db21c206e4c2acc1cf766117f003c3/scripts/rescan-scsi-bus.sh#L1080 -r enables removing of devices [default: disabled] --forceremove: Remove stale devices (DANGEROUS) --forcerescan: Remove and readd existing devices (DANGEROUS) -- dm-devel mailing list dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
