The operating system in question is RHEL5.3: ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release But for next time, how can I make Linux recognize a new SATA drive I have hot swapped in without rebooting?

dev/sda was recognized, I fixed the software RAID, and everything is fine now. bash: echo: write error: Invalid ~]# /root/rescan-scsi-bus.sh -l I tried a couple things to make the server find the new /dev/sda, such as rescan-scsi-bus.sh but they didn't work: ~]# echo "-" > /sys/class/scsi_host/host0/scan May 5 16:55:45 fs-2 kernel: ata1: EH complete

#32 lives will not rescan manual#
I do believe in this platform and I recently picked up a Transporter because I didn't like using iTunes remote, but these software issues make life hard.ĮDIT: Also when I do this manual delete of the database files I think all my Trackstat data gets deleted also. Is there a solution? Can I stop those automated rescans? Can I somehow make it preserve MusicIP scans? Will the scanner actually correctly clear and rescan? Thankfully scans are faster but this whole thing is really a pain. So the only recourse I have with this is to just manually delete cache files and then start a rescan. Not to mention that the control panel "clear cache" function does absolutely nothing. I need to literally go into the SBS folder and delete the cache manually. This has been an issue for several releases and I am just bringing this up. Now if I select clear library and rescan it will not really work. The new automated rescans do not play well with MusicIP at all. Well, I've noticed a lot of changes in 7.6 but one in particular nearly makes MusicIP unusable.įor whatever reason even when a correct scan was done and the SBS restarts it will rescan the library and in the process if MusicIP is not running it will clear all MusicIP data.
