Dear list readers -
 
I have an FC2 server currently with 1 hotswap scsi drive, i want to add
2 more scsi disks so that i can temporarily mount them and dd the
contents from 1 to the other 2. I remember scsiadd but that seems
deprecated for some reason, and googling brings up the SCSI How To which
recommends the following:
 
 echo "scsi add-single-device <h> <b> <t> <l>" > /proc/scsi/scsi where
the variables are host, bus (channel), target (scsi id) and lun. 
 
but when i do this as in echo "scsi add-single-device scsi0 00 01 00" >
/proc/scsi/scsi  and then cat the proc fs for that file, i only see the
original drive in the marchine. Is there another way to add a hotswap
without rebooting? Or any other tips:?
 
Thanks in advance
Michael Weiner
