Hello there, has the issue of making the SCSI disk driver able to support hot-swapping of disks been discussed already? What I'd like to be able to do is: Configure the SCSI disk driver so that it creates sd devices upon boot for any SCSI ID's I specify (i.e. 'device sd0 at scbus2 target 0 unit 0 flags 0xwhatever). The sd driver seems to be prepared for this, but the necessary changes to scsiconf.c do not seem to be there. We'd also need a set of utilities to make the kernel reprobe a given SCSI device. Is anyone reading this already working in that direction? Or is there an alternative sd driver with more features available? We'd even consider commercial alternatives, provided that source code is also available.
