Description
RHEL Program Management
2010-11-09 15:57:35 UTC
in kernel-2.6.18-128.28.1.el5 linux-2.6-scsi-scsi_transport_fc-fc_user_scan-correction.patch Still cannot reproduce this issue. I changed the zoning configure which present 3 rports (path) to host. Then performing continuous rescan with 1s interval: echo "- - -" >/sys/class/scsi_host/host4/scan echo "- - -" >/sys/class/scsi_host/host5/scan During the rescan, I add a zone into a zoneset which present a new rport to host. Host successfully found the new path and add the new scsi device. I have performed 2435 times rescan, but none of them went loop forever. I will keep this one as Sanity Only until we got detailed and practicable reproduce step.
