Re: FreeBSD 8.0 not detecting hot swap drive insertion

2009-12-23 Thread Rob
It should be noted that my raid controller driver (htprr) is exhibiting 
the same issue.  Before 8.0, both the ata and htprr drivers would 
recognize a HD insertion and the disks information would be scanned and 
device nodes created.  On 8.0, the best I can see is that the drive 
insertion is detected (the htprr driver prints a message about drive 
insertion/removal), but the disks are never scanned for drive 
information nor device nodes created.


Rob

P.S. My apologies if I posted this twice.  I didn't see it get to the list.

older driver no longer detect drive insertion?

Are you using the original (7.x) ata(4) driver or the newer enhanced 
SATA drivers like ahci(4) or siis(4)?  If you're using the latter your 
devices will be labeled /dev/ada* instead of /dev/ad*.  If you are 
indeed using the newer enhanced SATA drivers, you will need to use 
camcontrol to reset and rescan the associated SATA channels.

FreeBSD 8.0 not detecting hot swap drive insertion
