Adding a Disk on an Integral SCSI Controller

To add an option disk on an integral SCSI controller to a system, perform these steps:

  1. Complete the steps in the section "Adding a New Option Disk" above.

  2. Use the Add_disk command to perform the remaining steps to configure the disk:

    # Add_disk controller_number drive_address lun_number

    If you are adding a second disk on controller 0 to your system, you do not have to specify the disk, controller number, or logical unit number; adding disk 2 on controller 0 is the default. If you are adding a third (or greater) disk, or if you are adding a disk on a controller other than controller 0, you must specify the disk and controller. If the disk device has a logical unit number different from zero, it must be specified.

    Add_disk checks for valid filesystems on the disk, and if any filesystems are present, you are warned and asked for permission before the existing filesystems are destroyed and a new filesystem is made.

    The Add_disk command performs these tasks:
