I have been following the directions on setting up a MySql database on EC2 here: http://aws.amazon.com/articles/1663?_encoding=UTF8&jiveRedirect=1

I got a problem when I run:

$ sudo mkfs.xfs /dev/sdh
Cannot stat /dev/sdh: No such file or directory

What can it be?

Edit:
I ran the following based on @karudzo advice

$ cd /dev
$ sudo /sbin/MAKEDEV sdh
$ sudo mkfs.xfs /dev/sdh
mkfs.xfs: cannot open /dev/sdh: No such device or address
