similar to: Problem with pci passthrough for a perc 5/i raid controller

Hello, I noticed the default megaraid_sas driver version in upstream Linux 2.6.32.25 is pretty old, version 4.01, and it seems to be very buggy. It fails to bring up disks and boot fails. Many people have reported this issue on various hardware using LSI RAID adapters, and on various Dell servers (R310/R410/R510/R710) using Dell PERC H700 RAID adapters (which are rebranded LSI adapters).

we have several R900 servers with PERC 6/E card in it. Recently it we getting some message on /var/log/message say change to "write back" and change back to "write through". We figure out it is PERC 6/E card battery weak. My questions are: 1. some battery only use one year (some even shorter) and already this problem. 2. How come PERC 5/E does not have this issue? 3.

I''ve been trying to set up a VGA-passthrough on my Ubuntu 12.04 box to run Windows (for gaming) while leaving my RAID-5 array available (managed by Linux).

Hi! As dom0 I''m running Ubuntu Hardy withe xen 3.3 from backports. Reason to using xen 3.3 is that I could get Intrepid stock kernel to work as domu with xen 3.2. Now the problem I have is that I can''t passthrough PCI-devices to my domu. If I run lspci in the domu nothing is returned. I''ve tried to use the kernel from Hardy (2.6.24-21-xen) and stock kernel from

Hi I have an Asus M2N32 WS Pro, 4G Ram, AthlonX264 4600+. I Installed SuSE 10.3 (64bit) on Dom0, LVM on Raid 5. All domU''s boot off LVM, using same Suse 10.3. I have a firewall (fw) domU running shorewall and a domU name-dhcp-server (nds). Somewhere in between 10 and 16 hours the network stalls. In dns, I can see dhcp queries and offers, but these never make it to the clients in the

Hi folks: At work, I have an R510, and R610 and an R710 - all with the H700 PERC controller. Based on experiments, it seems like there is no way to bypass the PERC controller - it seems like one can only access the individual disks if they are set up in RAID0 each. This brings me to ask some questions: a. Is it fine (in terms of an intelligent controller coming in the way of ZFS) to have the

Does anyone know if a PERC H200 is a real RAID controller? I'm about to build a box to CentOS 6.5 (it was Windows...) with RAID 6 on Monday, and this PE R610 has this.... I'm familiar with PERC 6 and 7s, but just dunno 'bout this one. mark

Hello, I'm curiuos if anyone knows if it's possible to set up a Dell R515 (which has PERC H700) to be JBOD. It seems the only options are RAID0 or RAID1. I read posts, where people say it can by done by making each disk its own RAID0.? This works, but it wigs out when that disk is removed, and forgets a disk was ever there (unless I go back in the PERC and fix it). My plan is to have a

Hi all! I want to assign a physical network card (e100) to a domU: I think Dom0 is ok but domU does not recognize the pci nic. into DomU I don''t know wath should I see: I have nothing in dmesg nor in messages... Into Dom0 I have this modules.conf: options pciback hide=(0000:03: 08.0) install e100 /sbin/modprobe pciback; /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install e100 This is dmesg: pciback

Hello Xen Users, I have attached the latest copy of my own documentation in PDF format as well as some error files related to the latest tests I ran. I have documented the steps I took to reach my current situation. While I have a "working" install, it is not optimal and there are several problems and questions I would like to address: - If Dom0 is a privileged DomU, should we be

I am using the latest xen unstable and trying to install this 00:19.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82562V 10/100 Network Connection (rev 02) since xen uses 2.6.16.29 it does not support it yet, someone said (on google) that 2.6.18.3 supports it. So I want to boot 2.6.18.3 in domU and enable it with the pciback thing. my seize commands are: echo -n 0000:00:19.0 >

I am a bit confused on the PCI stuff. PASSTHRU-- does this mean that pcifront is not needed? Or only that the PCI is not limited as it is with slot. In general, none of the docs are getting me anywhere with xen 3.0.3. Example: I run this: echo -n 0000:2:0.1>/sys/bus/pci/drivers/pciback/new_slot echo -n 0000:2:0.0>/sys/bus/pci/drivers/pciback/new_slot echo -n bind 0000:2:0.0 >
