Looking for help kind of in a hurry. I've been searching google but not finding any options.
Is there any way to fix missing /dev paths to luns without rebooting?
For example, see the output from lsscsi below. The only way I know to fix this is with a reboot, but I REALLY Need to avoid that if possible.
Thanks James
I found something the other day that might help... I used it to add new disks to a VM without a reboot.

is the relevant piece. note where it says 'host#' you'll need to find the host number (all mine had 0,1,2); I can't swear this won't make your host catch on fire, burn to the ground, return as a zombie and write bad checks in your name, but it seemed to work for me.
