scsi1x7(1M)  —  ADMINISTRATOR COMMANDS

NAME

scsi1x7 − add /dev entries for SCSI devices in the Equipped Device Table (EDT)

SYNOPSIS

/sbin/auto-device/scsi1x7

DESCRIPTION

scsi1x7 performs the following steps:

1.  Searches the EDT to determine if the scsi1x7 SCSI host adapter support is configured.  If it is not found, the program deletes any existing related device nodes and exits. 

2.  Examines the Extended EDT information to determine the peripheral complement attached to the host adapter.  All non-present devices with existing device nodes have their device nodes deleted. 

3.  Compares the existing device nodes against the Extended EDT information, and device nodes are created for all devices that do not have device nodes.  Devices that may have changed type (for example, tape to disk) will have their device nodes deleted and recreated.
