–
The UltraPath is not installed.
NOTE
The following part uses the script
ql-dynamic-tgt-lun-disc.sh
, of the scanning tool of the
QLA2460 FC HBA as an example. You can download the script
ql-dynamic-tgt-lun-disc.sh
from
(to the root directory of Linux).
Enter:
./ql-dynamic-tgt-lun-disc.sh
To run the script of the scanning tool and automatically scan for the newly-mapped
volume.
–
The UltraPath is installed.
Enter:
hot_add
To identify loaded volumes. The following information is displayed.
tarting new devices re-scan... scan mptsas HBA host /sys/class/scsi_host/
host1... no new device found run /usr/sbin/upTools -s busscan... found
2:0:0:0->/dev/sdb found 2:0:0:1->/dev/sdc /usr/sbin/hot_add is completed.
NOTE
Sometimes, you need to repeat the command
hot_add
to scan for the newly-mapped volumes.
Step 4
Enter the command
fdisk -1
to view the information about all the disks of the AS. The following
information is displayed.
Disk /dev/sda: 80.0 GB, 80026361856 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 9729
cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

cylinders
Units = cylinders of 2074 * 512 = 1061888 bytes
Disk /dev/sdb doesn't contain a valid partition table
NOTE
In this example, one volume is mapped to the AS as the logical disk sdb of the AS.
Step 5
In this example, the command
fdisk /dev/sdb
is used to partition the logical disk sdb of the AS
(set according to the actual situation). The following information is displayed.
Command (m for help): n Command action e extended p primary partition (1-4) p
Partition number (1-4): 1 First cylinder (1-1011, default 1): 1 Last cylinder
(1-1011, default 1): 1011
Command (m for help): w The partition table has been altered!
Calling ioctl() to re-read partition table. Syncing disks.
Step 6
In this example, the command
mkfs.ext3 /dev/sdb1
is used to create a file system for sdb (set
according to the actual situation). The following information is displayed.
mke2fs 1.38 (30-Jun-2005) /dev/sdb is entire device, not just one partition!
