[CentOS] getting a CentOS6 VM on VMware ESXi platform to recognize a new disk device
Hello Julius, Thanks - but it doesn't seem to work. I installed sg3_utils and ran #scsi-rescan but that seemed to have done nothing for some reason. Cheers, Boris.

I only ask because I've never seen anyone respond with "I ran #command".> >> Cheers, >> >> Boris. >> >-- public gpg key id: 1362BA1A
