I guess that a lot of people have faced this phenomenon. E.g. it
happend to me when a cd burning process crashed and also when I
disconnected accidently the USB cabel when using my webcam. Both times
the only way to get the devices back into normal operation was a
reboot.
But as you are using SCSI you might be lucky by removing the scsi
device with:
from linux/drivers/scsi/scsi.c:
* Usage: echo "scsi add-single-device 0 1 2 3"
>/proc/scsi/scsi
* with "0 1 2 3" replaced by your "Host Channel Id Lun".
* Consider this feature BETA.
With remove-single-device you can remove the device.
You could also use klinuxscsimangager for that purpose which is only a
GUI interface for the above commands. I have put the source of this
program on my ftp: ftp://ftp.dettmering.org/pub/linux/scsi/. The
homepage is
http://stud3.tuwien.ac.at/~e9925371/project/linux/klsm.html.
Or you can search the web for a script named rescan-scsi-bus.sh (which
is included with the chameleon distribution). IIRC this script is
capable to send a scsi reset signal to a specific device.
But if all this doesn't help you I guess that you will have to reboot
your server.
