We have a SPARC Classic system that runs our FTP server.
We reused a 4-5 year old MAXTOR 760Mb SCSI disk, and that ran
fine under Solaris 2.2.
Today I upgraded the system to Solaris 2.4, and to my big
surprise the can't system create the /dev -> /devices links
for that device at boot time.
Other disks works OK, and the probe-scsi command can see the
old MAXTOR disk OK, so it doesn't look like it's the controller
that has died on me.
So, the situation is that I have all the FTP data on a disk
drive that I can't access... bummer!
Is it true that the SCSI drivers in Solaris 2.4 dropped support
for such older disks? Would there be additional drivers I can
install from the net somewhere?
Any input is appreciated! Our FTP server is dead!!!
Thanks, Henrik
