For a complete description of SCSI block devices management in RHEL 5 you can find the "Online Storage Reconfiguration Guide" available online or for downloading at: http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/5/pdf/Online_Storage_Reconfiguration_Guide/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux-5-Online_Storage_Reconfiguration_Guide-en-US.pdf The chapter that describes block devices removal is online at: http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/5/html-single/Online_Storage_Reconfiguration_Guide/index.html#removing_devices It's also handy for LUN automated detection/removal the utility rescan-scsi-bus.sh . Description is in the same manual, at: http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/5/html-single/Online_Storage_Reconfiguration_Guide/index.html#rescan-scsi-bus In case you use RHEL 6, the very same information is located at chapter 24 of the more comprehensive "Storage Administration Guide": http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Storage_Administration_Guide/index.html BTW, s390-tools is called s390utils in RHEL.
