Hi, I have strange problem when booting FreeBSD-6.x in HP Proliant ML370 G4. The problem is "-" appears on the screen and it never boots unless somebody hits the "Enter" key. Sometimes even PS2 keyboard doesn't respond during that time. Tried with USB keyboard, same problem. The machine has dual Xeon 3.2 GHz, 1GB of RAM and LSI Logic (mpt-5.0.5.20.00 bios) LSI1030-IT

Hi, According to the webpage [1], 6.1 has been branched on April 5. However, I noticed that there is a tag called RELENG_6_1, not a branch called RELENG_6_1. For example, sys/conf/newvers.sh [2], rev 1.69.2.11, is on RELENG_6 branch with tag RELENG_6_1_BP and RELENG_6_1. It is a bit strange for me. At least, we have RELENG_X_Y branch before and RELENG_X_Y_BP tag. Is there any special reason that

Hi, all! I want to change current RHEL 4.0 ES into CentOS 4.2 on Sun X4100 server. The server has SAS SCSI based two 2.5" hard disks. I could only install RHEL 4.0 Update 1 because the server is equipped with RHEL 4.0 Update 1's device driver only. I've included below the boot process messages concerned with SCSI controller. If it's possible for me to install CentOS 4.0 on my

Hello, Recently we bought HP bl35 blades with LSI Logic SAS controllers. mpt* drivers works fine but I would like to somehow view status from command line. To monitor e.g. if one of the HDDs failed. I found mptutil on LSI Logic site but it just shows me configuration in quite cryptic form. Thanks, Mindaugas

I have just built a new SunFire X4100 server with an Adaptec 2230SLP RAID card using FreeBSD 6.2-PRE kernel (from September 20). Everything is working extremely well except I cannot run the aaccli utility on this controller. When I try to open the controller, it gives this error: Command Error: <The current AFAAPI.DLL is too old to work with the current controller software.> On

We are using following dtrace script to analyze an application. However we see different number of lwp_yield and yield calls reported depending on whether we trace mutex_lock or mutex_unlock or not. The number reported when we are not tracing mutex_lock or mutex_unlock is higher. What could be going on here and which one is the correct number. This is on S10 U2. Thanks, Rao.

Hi, I have a LSI Logic sata/sas raid running, is there a way to see the state of the volume, like optimal, degraded or resyncing? I've tried several commands with camcontrol but I cant figure it out. -- Peter Ankerst?l peter@pean.org http://www.pean.org/

Hello, I'm trying to upgrade from 5-stable to 6-stable; after rebooting to the new kernel, the amr(4) module (amr.ko) refuses to load with this message: link_elf: symbol cam_simq_alloc undefined However, a quick nm(1) on /boot/kernel/cam.ko does show: ... 0000f0ac T cam_sim_set_path 0000efc4 T cam_simq_alloc 0000efd4 T cam_simq_free ... and cam.ko is already loaded before amr.ko.

Hi, We bought a new Dell PowerEdge 2950III with Perc 6/i and have the disk geometry problem using 6.3 final or 7.0 RC1. Seems that we are not alone at least one guy has similar problem reported earlier: http://unix.derkeiler.com/Mailing-Lists/FreeBSD/questions/2008-01/msg00506.html I was reading the mailing list and found that some of the people are happily using this hardware with the latest

Hi all! The following files emits warnings when compiled with gcc 4.0: al175.c bcmxcp_ser.c belkinunv.c cyberpower.c everups.c powercom.c solis.c All warnings seem to be of this variety: everups.c:38: warning: pointer targets in passing argument 2 of 'ser_get_char' differ in signedness I suggest that those who fiddles with those drivers fixes the warnings and verifies that it works

Hi all, I have faced yet another kernel panic that seems to be related to mpt driver. This time i was trying to add a new disk to a running system (snv_134) and this new disk was not being detected...following a tip i ran the lsitool to reset the bus and this lead to a system panic. MPT driver : BAD TRAP: type=e (#pf Page fault) rp=ffffff001fc98020 addr=4 occurred in module "mpt" due

I''m testing an Iscsi multipath configuration on a T2000 with two disk devices provided by a Netapp filer. Both the T2000 and the Netapp have two ethernet interfaces for Iscsi, going to separate switches on separate private networks. The scsi_vhci devices look like this in `format'': 1. c4t60A98000433469764E4A413571444B63d0 <NETAPP-LUN-0.2-50.00GB>

Hi all; We have a Solaris 10 U9 x86 instance running on Silicon Mechanics / SuperMicro hardware. Occasionally under high load (ZFS scrub for example), the box becomes non-responsive (it continues to respond to ping but nothing else works -- not even the local console). Our only solution is to hard reset after which everything comes up normally. Logs are showing the following: Jan 8

Anyone seen either of these "in the wild" yet? RHEL3/RHEL4 are install options so I'm assuming CentOS will just work out of the box, but I thought I'd ask here. The 2100 seems like a viable alternative to whitebox 1RU boxes that we currently use, especially with the new dual core processors. Cheers,

Hello, my apologies for not being sure whom to tell this problem, but it is very strange. Let me tell the story: I''m using XEN (3.0.2) with SLES10 (x86_64, SunFire X4100). On one machine I have three virtual machines ("DomU") that are very identically configured (SLES10 x86_64 also). There is also a SLES9 (i386) acting as a multi-homed NFS server. I can mount and access a

Hello, I think this needs a few more eyes: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-scsi/2009-January/003782.html In short, writes are slow, likely do to the write-cache being enabled on the controller. The sysctl used in 6.x to turn the cache off don't seem to be in 7.x. Thanks, Charles ___ Charles Sprickman NetEng/SysAdmin Bway.net - New York's Best Internet - www.bway.net

According to various posts the LSI SAS3081E-R seems to work well with OpenSolaris. But I''ve got pretty chilled-out from my recent problems with Areca-1680''s. Could anyone please confirm that the LSI SAS3081E-R works well ? Is hotplug supported ? Anything else I should know before buying one of these cards ? Thanks, Arnaud

Hi, I guess the subject says it all.. I am thinking about combining a few servers onto a single server since they mostly do nothing much at all which would mean there would be less load on the UPS and a lot less noise in my office.. Since VMWare server is now free its probably the perfect time to do it.. The only issue is getting the VMWare up and running.. I would prefer to run it on

Hi, Currently I've been using an RHEL4 Update 4 ia64 AS Linux version and running in HP rx6600 server. I tried to google-out the RAID, temperature and FAN status manage and monitoring tool for RHEL4 Update 4 ia64 AS Linux But i can't able to findout the same for RHEL4 Update 4 ia64 AS Linux server Can anyone suggest me the write status monitoring and manage tool for

Hi, folks, Got an older Dell R410, with an LSI 1068E PCI-Express Fusion-MPT SAS (rev 08). It *appears* that a) trying MegaRaid, and b) from what I'm googling, that what I need are mptfusion-related packages. Unfortunately, yum shows me nothing available in base, epel, or rpmfusion. Am I looking for the wrong thing, or does anyone have a source (no, I haven't looked at LSI, sorry
