I'll assume you're using Linux because a) the header files of your message and b) it's the only one I can answer for :-) You need to be using SCSI as a module (and not compiled into the kernel). Unload the SCSI module (you would need to unmount SCSI disks and unload the modules for all the SCSI devices). Reload the modules as necessary. When the SCSI module is loaded it scans the bus. (This worked for me in the past when I forgot to plug in a tape drive). Paul
