Storage paths not automatically recovered during
IBM 2145SAN controller upgrade. -
We have performed a firmware update on one controller at a time on
IBM 2145SAN array but observed that after a reboot of storage controller, failed paths were not able to recover back automatically.After waiting for ~20 minutes for the path recovery, a manual SCSI bus re-scan was required to recover the paths:
$ echo "- - -" > /sys/class/scsi_host/hostX/scan
