Standalone drive not seen by NetVault, but is visible to Linux OS (4044324)

Date: 5/07
Affected NV Version: All up to 7.4.5
OS Version: Linux
Plugin version: N/A
Application version: N/A


Description: Due to the sg driver being required in NetVault, the Standalone drive won’t show up in NetVault, the sg driver was not being loaded automatically.

To verify that the sg driver is not being loaded, type this.
/sbin/lsmod | grep sg

If it is not loaded use this command to find the version of the kernel you are currently running.
uname -a

Then go to /lib/modules/ /kernel/drivers/scsi and type the following command.
/sbin/insmod sg.ko

You will probably need to make a script to automatically load the sg driver when the computer is restarted.
