If there is a /sys/class/scsi_host/host0 and a /sys/class/scsi_host/host1, for example, bash will simply error out with "/sys/class/scsi_host/host*/scan: ambiguous redirect". It gets even more fun if you ran 'echo "- - -" > /sys/class/scsi_host/host0/scan /sys/class/scsi_host/host1/scan' because that's the equivalent of running 'echo "- - -" /sys/class/scsi_host/host1/scan > /sys/class/scsi_host/host0/scan'. EIther way, it's not what you want. You need to either issue the command against each entry in /sys/class/scsi_host/ (manually or with a loop), or figure out which points to the device you want to rescan. -- Jonathan Billings <jsbillin@xxxxxxxxx> College of Engineering - CAEN - Unix and Linux Support -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
