I use a DVD burner for backups, and I usually forget to turn it on

rebooting? Is there a process that can be reset or a command that
tells FBSD that the drive exists?

man camcontrol(8)

I think you need camcontrol rescan <all | bus[:target:lun]>: use dmesg or camcontrol devlist -v to get the target names.
