Hello Folks,
(I am afraid) we are using FreeBSD as the initial boot/hardware/disk
configuration tool for our Standard Windows Server builds.
We have a bootable CD that identifies hardware, partitions disk zero,
copies the install files over and commences the Windows installation
process.
This is working fine on a large number of machines/scsi controllers, but
the ServeRAID is causing some issues.
I am attempting to use the 4.11-Release IPS driver on an IBM xSeries 342
with a ServeRAID 4Lx RAID controller.
(Controller BIOS/Firmware 7.10.18 - Two 18GB drives in a mirrored
formation)
Whilst we have successfully tested 5.3 with the IPS driver for this
purpose we are getting some odd errors in 4.11
(At this time it is not possible to migrate to 5.3 for our purposes)
When copying a large number of files (the i386 folder) using cp from a
mounted CD to a DOS formatted partition on ipsd0 we are getting the
following errors:
---cut here---
devstat_end_transaction: HELP!! busy_count for ipsd0 is < 0 (-1)!
panic: vwakeup: neg numoutput
syncing disks... ips0: WARNING: command timeout. Adapter is in toaster
mode, resetting to known state
devstat_end_transaction: HELP!! busy_count for ipsd0 is < 0 (-1)!
ips0: resetting adapter, this may take up to 5 minutes
ips0: syncing config
ips0: ERROR: unable to get a command! can't sync cache!
ips0: adapter clear failed
ips0: AIEE! adapter reset failed, giving up and going home! Have a nice
day.
---cut here---
I have booted into single user mode, and initiated manual
mass-file-copies, and the same errors occur every time.
I have examined the CTRL+I POST Config utility and all is being reported
as OK.
Dmesg output and pciconf output below:
