How to add SAN disk to Sun server and see/use without a reboot

Please excuse cross posting, not sure which forum this topic should be filed under...

Okay, coming from an HP environment where if we zoned and masked new disks to a host we did this to see them...

ioscan -fn

insf -e

Bingo, can see and talk to new disks, and use them, all online, no reboot required.

How do I do this in SUN, solaris 10 mostly, although 8/9 steps are helpful too. I've tried several internet searches, and I got close, but was not able to get Veritas Enterprise Administrator or VVM to be able to use the disk unless we did a reboot.

Any help is appreciated.

The process should be as follows:

Verify that disks are NOT present with the format command, then

#> devfsadm -v -c disk

Verify that disk ARE present with the format command.

To add access to disks for Veritas do the following:

#> vxdctl enable

That should be it.
