[PATCH 1/2] scsi_transport_fc: implement 'disable_target_scan' module parameter

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



On larger installations it makes sense to disable the target scan
per default on boot, and scan the required LUNs directly via udev
rules.
