My last question of the day.
All of my kernel recompilation exercises today were for the purpose of solving a problem.
I have external storage connected via Qlogic 2300 fibrechannel. I am pushing out 12 disks to the RedHat system but it only see's the first 8 luns. 0 - 7
I already have the following options in my modules.conf file
options scsi_mod max_scsi_luns=32 options sd_mod max_scsi_disks_fs=32
I can manually add the rest in using:
echo "scsi add-single-device 2 0 0 8">/proc/scsi/scsi
I can add as many as I like and then they work fine, but once rebooted, any luns above 7 are gone and need to be manually added again.
I found a bug fix on line which required adding a line to /usr/src/linux-2.4/drivers/scsi/scsi-scan.c and recompiling the kernel. I did all this and am now running with the new kernel, but the problem has not changed. It still wont scan anything above lun 7.
Does anyone know of this issue and know of a fix. I'm pretty much at wits end on it.
Any help would be most welcome.
