Rescan

This command searches for SCSI storage sub-systems and creates block devices for newly found sub-systems and deletes block devices for LUNs that are no longer accessible.
This command does not have an output.
As Linux does not process the capacity change unit attention, you need to unmap, rescan, map, and rescan again.

Collecting logs

This command creates an archived tar.gz file that includes information that is relevant for troubleshooting.

1. Run the following command:

   infinihost logs collect

   The output is:

   Logs collected successfully to /tmp/infinihost-logs.2014-07-01.10-00-O5Z0aH.tar.gz

2. Download the file and send it to INFINIDAT Support.
