SubjectRe: Re: problems with scsi_transport_fc and qla2xxx
Hi Mike!
Unfortunately I don't have the directory /proc/scsi/qla2xxx.
However the target sees PRLI from the host again after reconnecting
the cable between the initiator and the switch.
Does it mean the rediscovering new devices on initiator side is
already done?

Thanks,

Maxim.

MS> Historically the qlogic driver rescan is a 2-phase process:

MS> 2) rescan, e.g.: echo - - - > /sys/class/scsi_host/host4/scan
