Hey, anyone using an LSI MegaRAID experienced "disappearing drives"...? We installed 6 new C6 servers, each with a Supermicro SMC2108 (LSI MegaRAID) controllers and 3 PX-128M5Pro SSDs ( RAID1 + hostswap). 2 weeks (and almost no activity on it, since not in production, apart from installation) later, megacli sees (based on the slot numbers): - on one server: only the 2nd disk of the RAID

Thank you for your help.

My firmware seems to be more up to date. Anyway, I will try to update firmware. I have to check how to do that. # dmesg |grep LSI scsi4 : LSI SAS

i'm configuring a storage server with CentOS 6.2, it uses a LSI MegaRAID SAS controller, I'm using LSI's megacli to configure the storage... Any ideas on how to get drive failure notifications out of this system? I'm configuring hot spares but I'd still like some sort of notification when a drive has failed so the spare can be replaced. -- john r pierce

Happy new year ! We have a SuperMicro server with a LSI MegaRAID 9260-4i controller. Since Centos 6.6 update (kernel 2.6.32-504), the controller doesn't initialize at boot. Reverting to kernel 2.6.32-431 allows server to boot fine. The server can't boot due to a bug in LSI megaraid module. Boot log ends by a lot of lines: RESET_GEN2: retry=xxx, hostdiag=a4 I tried Centos 6.6

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 LSI Logic MegaRAID 8480 Storage controller I am having trouble reconfigure one of the hardware raid devices It is configured with 4 hardware raid logical volumes on /dev/sda /dev/sdb /dev/sdc /dev/sdd. I am in the middle of rebuilding the system, ?and at this point I am only using one of the volumes, /dev/sda /dev/sda, /dev/sdb, and /dev/sdd are all 2 drive raid1 mirrors I will be

I've got a box running C7, just updated (yesterday). It had an onboard RAID controller, and an HBA. I just installed a new, additional RAID card, all LSI. MegaCli64 only sees one controller. I can't seem to find the magic to see the others. I *know* the new card is a MegaRAID - the box it came in says so. The system sees it 1:00.0 RAID bus controller: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic SAS1078

Dear list, I have inherited a CentOS-5 box with a LSI Sata Raid controller. It is configured as a RAID5 w/hot-standby. My concern is that I have no present means of determining the RAID status w/o downing the system and going into the bios to get status. If a disk has failed and brought the standby disk online, I would like to know about it, the day it happens by seeing it in syslog or getting

Does anyone know what program can be used to query the RAID status from the OS for an on-board LSI SAS 2308-4i? On this page: http://docs.avagotech.com/docs/12351997 there is a curious note on the left that reads: "Integrated MegaRAID support available upon request" After one mostly fruitless round of chatting with LSI/Avago/Broadcom and one completely fruitless round of chatting

I just had an IBM in a remote location with a hardware raid1 have both drives go bad. With local machines I probably would have caught it from the drive light before the 2nd one died... What is the state of the art in linux software monitoring for this? Long ago when that box was set up I think the best I could have done was a Java GUI tool that IBM had for their servers - and that seemed like

Have you checked the compile time in the boot messages to see you''re actually booting the kernel you think you are? The compile warnings are nothing to do with Xen.

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/
