'lsscsi -g' and 'lssg' shows different number of SCSI devices on system.

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • lsscsi -g and lssg shows different number of /dev/sgX SCSI generic devices on system.
  • We are having issues getting an accurate list of attached SAN/SCSI devices (tapes, libraries, and SAN storage), there should be 11 tape devices on system, and lscsi -g output shows 11 tape devices, but lssg shows only 10.

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.7
  • HP provided lssg utility.
