Don't test whether the "nonoptimal_volumes" parameter works, it does -
but if you pull a drive, FreeBSD likes to panic both on the loss of a
disk
and then again when the drive is reconnected and the rebuild completes.
This is apparently some problem in the CAM layer, not the mpt driver,
but
it's something to be aware of. Scott Long has noted that this is being
worked on in 8.x.
Yes, I tried to remove a drive today. Of course I need to see if it works
properly
before using it "for real". It did, but just as you say it paniced when I
pulled the
drive and when is was resynced. But it sound great if someone is working
on
this problem!
The instability during a rebuild should be fixed in 7.2 (and 7-stable as
of about the last month). If you can, please update your sources and
let me know if it helps.
As for actually monitoring and configuring arrays, that work is in
progress.

Im running RELENG_7 cvsuped and built like 15 hours ago. I still have this
problem.
Please come back to me if you want some additional information about the
setup.

I'd rather prefer using a gmirror/gstripe instead of mpt semihardware raid
then ;)
The LSI card is not "semi-hardware" RAID, it's an actual RAID controller.
It's also in a ton of Dell products as well. It's a decent enough
controller and not terribly pricey.
