Getting Sol10 to recognise that a new disk has been attached to the LSI SAS1064 raid controller

knaapjvdSep 28 2018 — edited Oct 4 2018

Hi,

Scenario:

The Sun Fire X4100 M2 has an LSI SAS1064 raid controller.

The controller has no RAID set up.

There are two disks attached to the controller

The two disks are mirrored using software (LVM)

Whenever we need to replace one of the disks, this setup seems to require that we reboot the system in order for the operating system to detect that the new disk has been attached to the raid controller.

How can we avoid this reboot?

From the Operating System cli, can we scan the array and detect the new disk?

$ raidctl

Controller: 3

        Disk: 0.2.0

        Disk: 0.3.0

$ raidctl -l 3

Controller      Type            Version

----------------------------------------------------------------

c3              LSI_1064        1.16.00.00

$ MegaCli -PDList -aAll

Exit Code: 0x01

$  MegaCli -AdpAllInfo -aALL

Exit Code: 0x01

Kind regards,

Joost
