I keep this one in my bag-o-tricks for just this kind of thing. ;)
It's really handy for my SCSI Zip drive that may not be powered on
(or even plugged into the SCSI card) when a system boots.
Be sure to *understand* the caveats before attempting.
$ cat ~/tricks/rescan-scsi
As an alternative, you may manually add/remove SBP-2 devices via the procfs
with add-single-device <h> <b> <t> <l>: or remove-single-device <h> <b> <t>
<l>, where:
<h> = host (starting at zero for first SCSI adapter)
<b> = bus (normally zero)
<t> = target (starting at zero for first SBP-2 device)
<l> - lun (normally zero)
e.g. To manually add/detect a new SBP-2 device
echo "scsi add-single-device 0 0 0 0" > /proc/scsi/scsi
e.g. To manually remove a SBP-2 device after it's been unplugged
echo "scsi remove-single-device 0 0 0 0" > /proc/scsi/scsi
e.g. To check to see which SBP-2/SCSI devices are currently registered
cat /proc/scsi/scsi
