Hot adding or removing SCSI storage devices
The SCSI hot addition or hot removal feature allows for
addition or removal of SCSI storage devices (hard disks,
tape drives, CD-ROM drives) from a running system.
Some uses of the feature include:
-
replacing a failed storage device on a system that must maintain
high availability
-
moving less frequently used devices (such as tape drives) between systems
-
moving disk drives between systems to allow fast transport of data
NOTE:
You cannot hot add or remove disks on an MPIO-based
SCSI bus.
