I just updated a system to:
FreeBSD 11.0-CURRENT #0 r263263: Mon Mar 17 15:09:18 EDT 2014 amd64
According to src/UPDATING, this means "camcontrol" is now the
correct tool for both SCSI and IDE/ATA drives.
This system has an external hard drive dock, connected to ada1 via
eSATA. Every so often the drive gets swapped, causing it to disappear
from /dev.
Previously
root> atacontrol ata0 detach
root> atacontrol ata0 attach
would get it back.
I am unable how figure out the equivalent using camcontrol, in part
because many of the commands are explicitly tagged "SCSI".
Anybody out there know how to do this?
Respectfully,
Robert Huff
