name=string
attribute allows you to name the new unit. (This feature is for
9000 series and above controllers.) The string can be up to 21 characters and
cannot contain spaces. In order to use reserved characters (‘<‘, ‘>’, ‘!’, ‘&’,
etc.) put double quotes (" ") around the name string. The name can be changed
after the unit has been created. For more information, see
“/cx/ux set
name=string” on page 70
and “/cx/ux show name” on page 62.
storsave=protect|balance|perform
attribute allows user to set the storsave
policy of the new unit. This feature is only for 9550SX, 9590SE, and 9650SE
controllers. For more information, see “/cx/ux set
storsave=protect|balance|perform [quiet]” on page 70.

rescan [noscan]
This command instructs the controller to rescan all ports and reconstitute all
units. The controller will update its list of ports (attached disks), and attempts
to read every DCB (Disk Configuration Block) in order to re-assemble its
view and awareness of logical units. Any newly found unit(s) or drive(s) will
be listed.
noscan
is used to not inform the operating system of the unit discovery. The
default is to inform the operating system.
Example:
//localhost> /c1 rescan
Rescanning controller /c1 for units and drives ...Done
Found following unit(s): [/c1/u3]
Found following drive(s): [/c1/p7, /c1/p8]

Note:
If you are adding new drives, add them physically before issuing the rescan
commands. Hot swap carriers are required unless you first power-down the system
to prevent system hangs and electrical damage.
Note:
Rescanning does not import non-JBOD on 7000/8000 models
.
