Error description

  • enabling audit on and doing rmdev -dl sfwcomm# will
    remove
    the storage framework device  This can
    leave the fcs adapter in a opened state.
    Additionally when you then re-run cfgmgr you get errors
    that
    the sfwcomm can't be initialized.  However the device is
    created.
    Method error (/usr/lib/methods/cfgstorfworkcom -l
    sfwcomm0 ):
            0514-040 Error initializing a device into the
    kernel.
    Method error (/usr/lib/methods/cfgstorfworkcom -l
    sfwcomm0 ):
            0514-040 Error initializing a device into the
    kernel.
    

Local fix

  • do not turn on audit if you need to remove your fcs
    adapters.
    if you do turn it on reboot the system and that will
    clear it
    up.
    

Problem summary

  • When the audit is turned on and sfwcommX is unconfigured using
    rmdev, then rmdev of fscsiX device would fail.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The code changes are made to appropriately copy the data
    structures, for correct interface recognition.
