I have the latest kernel with the drivers for my 3ware 9550SX built in. Where can I find the tools and monitoring apps for this card? Are there rpms hiding somewhere, or do I need to build it from source? -- Bowie

Anyone having good results with 4-STABLE and the 3Ware 9000 series controllers? -- albert chin (china@thewrittenword.com)

Greetings, I am looking for a hardware raid card that supports up to 4 SATA II hard disks with hot swap (compatible raid cage) I have short listed two LSI/3Ware cards: 1. 9750-4i 2. 9650SE-4LPML Both appear to be well supported in Linux. I would appreciate your personal experience with the CLI tools provided by LSI. Can they be configured to send email for disk failures or SMART errors? Is

Those who used 3ware cards > do know it and do use that nice feature. I never used the 3dm2 web GUI. I thought it was stupid and greatly preferred tw_cli. You can set at least scheduled verifies through tw_cli. (I don't know if you could use the 3dm2 GUI to schedule other tasks.) I only use 3dm2 to send out email alerts. I tried using MSM to send out email alerts but I got way way...

Hello list, I see through the archives that some people here use 3ware RAID controllers with Centos. I have picked up two 9500S-4LP controllers for future servers. I was hoping that if some people could please share their 3ware monitoring scripts with the rest of the group. What I am really hoping to do is have some setup where a cron job runs scripts to test each of the drives connected to the

I've a 3ware Escalade 8006-2 and run Centos 4.2 using the latest kernel 2.6.9-34.0.2.ELsmp. I see that the card comes with some disk management tools called 3DM2 Management Utility. Is this ok to install? Is it good for reporting failed drives? Thanks Jon ___________________________________________________________ All New Yahoo! Mail ? Tired of Vi at gr@! come-ons?

...1.5.2 drivers. This install disk will ONLY work with Athlon and Opteron based systems running 32 bit CentOS 3.3 These images also contain built-in firmware upgrades for the 3ware 9500 SATA Raid controllers and provide increased RAID 5 performance. Also added to the download page is a version of 3DM2 disk management software for the 9500 series with a modified install script to allow automatic startup at boot time. This 3DM2 download is specific to CentOS but is architecture independent and should work with all installs. Thanks for the bandwidth. Seth Bardash Integrated Solutions and Sy...

Hi, I am looking into purchasing a new server. This server will be mission-critical. I have read and somewhat understood the theories behind RAIDs 0, 1, 5, 10 & JBOD. However, I would like to get some feedback from those who have experience in implementing and recovering from a HDD failure using RAID. Hardware specs include:- Dual Xeon 3.2 GHz 2 GB RAM I would like to implement

http://www.highpoint-tech.com/datasheets/RR2220%20datasheet_050430.pdf Anyone know if this is any good under Centos 4.3 ? I see there is a current RHEL 3 and 4 driver. Would that driver survive kernel upgrades, I'm guessing it would being modular ? (please don't tell me that 3ware is the only make to use, tw_cli is not exactly user friendly). Anyone using this -

The module loads and the disks are accessible no problem, but the 3dm monitoring utility runs for about 30 seconds before the processes just disappear. Nothing in messages. I tried updating to the latest firmware but it made no difference. Has anyone gotten the 3dm utility working on centos4? Is this a 2.6 thing? -jim

...ystem boots with a warning about a tainted driver but functions fine (we compiled the drivers on a whitebox linux system). This will be fixed in the next release. We hope to make available the 32 bit CentOS 3.3 driver disk, 64 bit CentOS 3.3 driver disk and a CentOS 3.3 modified install script for 3dm2 within the next few weeks. Any suggestions on making these offerings better will be appreciated. More to follow.

Hi Everyone, Any ideas of tools that one can use to report errors etc for hardware RAID? -- "I never look back darling, it distracts from the now", Edna Mode (The Incredibles)

Hi, I'm a bit curious of error messages of the type "remote operation failed: Stale NFS file handle". All clients using the file system use Gluster Native Client, so why should stale nfs file handle be reported? Regards, /jon -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I need a SATA RAID PCI card that works well with CentOS and is fully supported. Mandatory features: - works with the drivers already in the kernel, no additional drivers - can do RAID 0, 1 and 5 - hotswap - allows to monitor the status of the array and of each individual drive via a script (ideally run from cron) - works with very large SATA drives Nice to have features but not mandatory: -

...;ve got a new server with a 3ware 9550SXU with the Battery. I am using FreeBSD 7.0-Release (tried both 4BSD and ULE) using AMD64 and the 3ware performance for writes is just plain horrible. Something is obviously wrong but I'm not sure what. I've got a 4 disk RAID 10 array. According to 3dm2 the cache is on. I even tried setting The StorSave preference to "Performance" with no real benefit. There seems to be something really wrong with disk performance. Here's the results from bonnie: File './Bonnie.2551', size: 104857600 Writing with putc()...done Rewriting.....

Hi Everyone, Has anyone had any experience of using the Promise FastTrak SX4000 or SuperTrak SX6000 IDE RAID Controllers under Centos (if it matters I'm using version 4). I've seen it listed on linuxcompatible.org as working but would prefer to find out any first-hand experince before I buy. I'm looking to build a new mini server based on Mini-ITX and have found a great 1U case

Hi everyone, I'm looking into setting up a SATA hardware raid, probably 5 to use with CentOS 4. I chose hardware raid over software mostly because I like the fact that the raid is transparent to the OS. Does anyone know of any SATA controllers that are well tested for this sort of usage? From what I can tell from googling, this is more or less where RHEL stands: Red Hat Enterprise Linux
