Using ioscan with krm not running
When ioscan is run with the —fn or —Fn option, and the kernel resource monitor (krm) is
not running, there could be stale krm device files in the system, which would correspond to
different devices, including fclp, in ioscan output. This issue has no impact on the functionality
of the Fibre Channel port; however, ioscan output may be confusing. This issue can impact
any card accessible with ioscan, and is not specific to the cards supported by the fclp driver.
Corrective Action:The ioscan output can be returned to normal by either deleting the stale
krm device files, or by starting krm, which will recreate the device files.
