Bug#581388: O: scsiadd -- add or remove SCSI devices by rescanning the bus



Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

Description:
scsiadd allows you to add or remove SCSI devices without having to
restart the computer. This is *NOT* a substitute for powering down to
connect or disconnect hardware unless it's specifically designed to be
hot swappable. Use it to enable the external SCSI drive you only use
occasionally so is powered off when the machine first boots, or to
rescan the bus after moving hot-swap drives around. scsiadd will also
try to prevent you from doing anything to disrupt drive names that are
in use. Similar functionality is available by echoing text to
/proc/scsi/scsi
