Hi, the kernel behavior regarding scsi hotswap when the device is used is not uniform, assume that one disk (sda) is connected to hba, and this disk is part of a raid array. now if I do disconnect then connect the same drive again to the same port, then the disk is detected as new disk (sdb), but the next time I do disconnect and connect, then I got an error message saying: kobject_add failed for 1:0:0:0 with -EEXIST, don't try to register things with the same name in the same directory. also, the disk is not recognized!. and the same results are got when doing farther disconnects. my question is, why the Linux treats the first disconnect/connect differently! saeed - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
