I'd like to rescan the fiber card rather than rebooting. 
Since RHEL5 doesn't require you to load the drivers of the
vendor, none of the tools (lun_scan, et al) are installed
either.  There must be a way of detecting new LUNs without
rebooting - everything else has been pretty automatic so far
(card detection, activation, etc).

Did you rescan the SCSI/FC controller?  Or reboot the
machine?

Couldn't one just run kudzu and let it discover the
devices?

Rescanning the card (as mentioned in a previous post) is
pretty much 
card specific.  And in most cases it's an echo command to a
/proc 
location or something similar, so those tools won't be
needed.
