External SCSI Storage and / or Clustering

[joh_ng]

Guys;

I need some help. Basically i have a Dell PowerVault 200s. I have a problem, which sounds easy to you guys, but it's rather difficult for me.

I have issue a few commands at the bash :
#fdisk -l
#cat /etc/proc/proc

and lots of commands. however, i cant see the external storage (Dell PowerVault 220s).

From startx (gui) when i try to view the hardware browser, i can see /dev/sg2.

I have try to use the #sg, #mount and whatever command.. but it is worthless. Mind to help me ?

For the clustering part, i have compile the source and install the cluster package. Problem (currently ) i'm facing is how to get / detect the harddisk and making it as raw device.

I have tried to edit the /etc/fstab but error occours. Please guide me.

Thanks in advance.

John

is it really /dev/sg2 ?

I would expect /dev/sda for the device /dev/sda1 for the first partition
/dev/sdb for the second etc,

I believe raw is just the partition without a filesystem

fdisk /dev/sda

p to print the table, t to set the type select partition number etc
I dont know I assume you'd set type zero to use it as raw, (probably doesnt matter as it's just a label I think)....

have you checked the scsi addressing. because each indervidual disk should show up sd*
