Vmware扩展磁盘如何不需重启系统

    在虚拟机Vmware中咱们有时候须要添加新的虚拟磁盘或给已有虚拟磁盘扩容（expand），在新增磁盘或磁盘扩容后，Linux系统并不能立刻识别到。也就是说你看不到磁盘空间变化（使用fdisk -l查看），这时咱们能够经过重启系统（reboot）解决这个问题，可是不少时候，咱们并不想在存储扩容时重启系统，由于这样会影响到现有的业务系统。那么为何新增磁盘或磁盘扩容后，Linux系统识别不到呢？这个是由于链接存储设备的SCSI总线须要从新扫描，才能识别到这些新的存储设备。下面测试一下在添加新的虚拟磁盘或给已有虚拟磁盘扩容如何操做才能不用重启系统

1：Vmware虚拟磁盘扩容

以下所示，Vmware虚拟磁盘扩容后，使用fdisk -l看不到任何变化

[root@localhost ~]# fdisk -l

Disk /dev/sda: 171.7 GB, 171798691840 bytes

255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 20886 cylinders

Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System

/dev/sda1   *           1          13      104391   83  Linux

/dev/sda2              14       15665   125724690   8e  Linux LVM

/dev/sda3           15666       15795     1044225   83  Linux

/dev/sda4           15796       20886    40893457+  83  Linux

Disk /dev/dm-0: 126.6 GB, 126600871936 bytes

255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 15391 cylinders

Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

Disk /dev/dm-0 doesn't contain a valid partition table

Disk /dev/dm-1: 2113 MB, 2113929216 bytes

255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 257 cylinders

Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

Disk /dev/dm-1 doesn't contain a valid partition table

 

 

方法1：echo 1 > /sys/class/scsi_device/device/rescan

[root@localhost ~]# cd /sys/class/scsi_disk/

[root@localhost scsi_disk]# ls

0:0:0:0

[root@localhost scsi_disk]# cd 0\:0\:0\:0/

[root@localhost 0:0:0:0]# echo '1' > device/rescan 

[root@localhost 0:0:0:0]# fdisk -l

Disk /dev/sda: 173.9 GB, 173946175488 bytes

255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 21147 cylinders

Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System

/dev/sda1   *           1          13      104391   83  Linux

/dev/sda2              14       15665   125724690   8e  Linux LVM

/dev/sda3           15666       15795     1044225   83  Linux

/dev/sda4           15796       20886    40893457+  83  Linux

Disk /dev/dm-0: 126.6 GB, 126600871936 bytes

255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 15391 cylinders

Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

Disk /dev/dm-0 doesn't contain a valid partition table

Disk /dev/dm-1: 2113 MB, 2113929216 bytes

255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 257 cylinders

Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

Disk /dev/dm-1 doesn't contain a valid partition table

 

方法2：从新扫描特定的 SCSI Device

echo 1 > /sys/block/$DEVICE/device/rescan 用sda, sdb, sdc等替换$DEVICE

[root@localhost ~]# echo 1 > /sys/block/sda/device/rescan

2：Vmware新增虚拟磁盘

首先找到您的主机总线编号

[root@localhost ~]# grep mpt /sys/class/scsi_host/host?/proc_name

/sys/class/scsi_host/host0/proc_name:mptspi

使用下面命令扫描SCSI总线

[root@localhost ~]# echo "- - -" > /sys/class/scsi_host/host0/scan
