Right. The script I wrote, which is a little less elegant, uses /proc/dasd/devices,
and builds nodes for only "active" devices.
# $Id: dasdnode,v 1.1 2003/05/19 17:36:03 root Exp $
grep active /proc/dasd/devices | while read DASDENT ; do
DEV=${DASDENT:27:6}
if [ ! -b /dev/$DEV -a ${DEV:0:4} = dasd ] ; then
MAJ=${DASDENT:15:3}
MIN=${DASDENT:19:3}
mknod /dev/$DEV b $MAJ $MIN
chown root:disk /dev/$DEV
chmod 660 /dev/$DEV
mknod /dev/${DEV}1 b $MAJ $((MIN + 1))
chown root:disk /dev/${DEV}1
chmod 660 /dev/${DEV}1
mknod /dev/${DEV}2 b $MAJ $((MIN + 2))
chown root:disk /dev/${DEV}2
chmod 660 /dev/${DEV}2
mknod /dev/${DEV}3 b $MAJ $((MIN + 3))
chown root:disk /dev/${DEV}3
chmod 660 /dev/${DEV}3
fi
