Dear All; I want to install Centos 7 latest build on NEC Server 5800/120b-2. The installation wizard fails to detect the storage connected to LSI SATA MegaRaid PCI. Centos 5/6 were working fine with this H/W configuration but not the case with Centos 7. Please; advise. Fawzy Ibrahim Redhat Certified Engineer

I have opened the case of the server and it's LSI card with FakeRaid !! What I have to do now as lspci shows it as intel cards?

None of the missing modules appear to be related to RAID: autofs4, cpufreq_ondemand, freq_table, mperf, ipv6, microcode, power_meter. Can you post the output of "dme...

There's no option in BIOS to disable the RAID mode; this is NEC servers !!

I have Centos 5.7 64bit; I have installed vsftpd as standalone service and using it for two years now with no problem. Suddenly; only it works with active mode. The passive mode stops working and gives time out. Firewall is disabled and SELinux is set to permissive. I ran tcpdump and I noticed that only first three packets reached the FTP for passive mode and no more packets on other ports #

I have Centos 5.7 AMD64; is there a way to have Squid 3 with SSLBump feature in Centos 5.7? I appreciate any help on that?

Ok, I do see they had a series of MegaRAID SATA 150-xx and 300-xx cards, these were 64 bit PCI or PCI-X cards. 95Q9 does not appear to be a valid card number, 9240, 9260, 9280 are some pci-express SAS MegaRaid

It's fakeRAID but I do not know why there's no LSI cards in lspci output !! To manage the disks; I have to use the LSI Sata Megaraid fireware; so is there any hope to install Centos 7 on this H/W? I have three servers from this model and I was planning to use them as test environment for me. Is there any way to rebuild kernel drivers or by pass boot parameter dmraid=yes while installing
