I have 2 9.3 systems and I can not get sg_start to work.
Our specfile of the scsi package regarding sg_start is broken. sg_start as you see is just the libtool wrapper script instead of the real binary.
Ciao, Marcus
My workaround is follows: I got the source rpm from 9.2 and re-built it for 9.3. I see that hotplug depends on scsi. So I did not want to revert the scsi rpm to this old version of scsi. (No telling what I might f*%$kup!) So I create a temp directory, cd to it and extract the contents of the reverted scsi module with rpm2cpio. rpm2cpio /usr/src/packages/RPMS/i586/scsi-1.7_2.34_1.07_0.13-4.1.i586.rpm |cpio -id I then copy the old sg_start as old_sg_start cp bin/sg_start /bin/old_sg_start Change my scripts that use sg_start to use old_sg_start. It seems to work. I am using sg_start to spin down some infrequently used disks to save heat and reduce wear and tear. -- Paul Elliott 1(512)837-1096 pelliott@io.com PMB 181, 11900 Metric Blvd Suite J http://www.io.com/~pelliott/pme/ Austin TX 78758-3117
