We are installing Solaris 10 update 11 (x86-64) and have a small problem. new disks added (or disks resized) are not being recognized by the system automatically.
We have to reboot and configure them manually.
While on Solaris 10 update 9 & update 10, it was working fine. as long as we added a new disk, we could immediately see it in "format" (or after a small "devfsadm -c disks").
On the update 11, nothing.
I have tried all things like :
Still can't see any disks added. (nb : it's virtual machines on vmware) and it was working fine with builds 9 & 10.
Any heard of that bug ? Also, what else can I try to force a re scan of disks ? except a reboot.
Answering my old question.
It was back in the days a bug with the "LSI Logic Parallel" SCSI Controller (not compliant with build 11). "LSI Logic SAS" worked fine.
Its worth mentionning that it was on an old VMware ESX 6.0 and we just had to change the controller type to make it work.
