RE: How to make NT create \Device\Harddiskx for the n ew d etected scsi devices

Hi, Gera
Thanks for the Info. How would I send IOCTL_DISK_FIND_NEW_DEVICES to
\Device\Harddisk0\Partition0 ? can I directly send this ioctl to its
symbolic link \.\PhysicalDrive0 or there is another way. It would helpful
if you provide a sample code. I have tried sending
IOCTL_DISK_FIND_NEW_DEVICES to PhysicalDrive0 and still no new PhysicalDrive
or \Device\Harddiskx entries are created for the newly added logical disks.
Am I doing the right thing? Also, How would I send FT_CONFIGURE ioctls to
\Device\FtControl? any sample codes willl be a great help. Thanks…

John

The IOCTL_DISK_FIND_NEW_DEVICES sent to \Device\Harddisk0\Partition0 does
the trick for simple volumes.
Then FT_CONFIGURE ioctl to \Device\FtControl can be required to detect
volume sets.
Assigning drive letters is a another story…

Hi, I am having trouble of forcing NT to create
\Device\Harddiskx and PhysicalDrivex for new scsi logical
disks detected through IOCTL_SCSI_RESCAN_BUS. On W2k, I can
simply use CM_Locate_DevNode(&devInst, NULL,
CM_LOCATE_DEVNODE_NORMAL) and CM_Reenumerate_DevNode(devInst,
0) to force W2k to scan, and enumerate and create device
objects \Device\HarddiskVolumex\ for the new discovered
logical disks without running Disk Management. But on NT, is
there a similar Ioctl calls that I can use which will do the
same thing without running windisk? Thanks!!
