includes the following data:

RESCANNING ALL CHANNELS FROM THE BIOS
This option allows you to rescan all channels to detect new or removed disks and
arrays.
To perform a rescan, select Rescan All Channels from the Main menu. The activity
indicator in the Information field spins while the disks are being polled.
The Rescan All Channels option rescans all the channels, searching for new or
removed disks, and rereads the configuration information from each disk.
Sometimes when a disk is offline, it can be brought online through a rescan. Rescan
also stops and then automatically resumes all tasks.
