| David Sommerseth | 2016-01-20 16:04:42 UTC | Doc Text | Cause: Running rescan-scsi-bus.sh with the --update option removes /dev/null during execution. This happened due to wrong syntax in redirecting output to /dev/null when executing /bin/rm. The redirection did not happen but /dev/null was instead interpreted as a file to be removed. Consequence: /dev/null is an important system device file which should never be removed on any system. Fix: This update improves the rescan-scsi-bus.sh to use proper redirection to /dev/null. Result: Any redirected output is properly redirected and /dev/null is no longer removed by rescan-scsi-bus.sh. |

Result: Any redirected output is properly redirected and /dev/null is no longer removed by rescan-scsi-bus.sh. | When running the rescan-scsi-bus.sh script, due to incorrect syntax in redirecting output to the /dev/null device file while executing the /bin/rm utility, the redirection did not happen but /dev/null was instead interpreted as a file to be removed. As a consequence, running rescan-scsi-bus.sh with the "--update" option removed /dev/null during execution. This bug has been fixed, and /dev/null is no longer removed by rescan-scsi-bus.sh. |
