We are looking for a SCSI RAID enclosure + at least a few disks, for
testing/development purposes, in Toronto. This is to make the raid
management stuff work better. A few of us are working on the code,
but we would like the main scsi guys in Toronto to play along too.
The stuff is making process; here is a demo of a small part part of
it:
# bioctl -h ami0
Volume Status Size Device
ami0 0 Online 341G sd0 RAID5
0 Online 68.4G 0:0.0 ses0 <MAXTOR ATLAS15K2_73SCA JNZ6>
1 Online 68.4G 0:2.0 ses0 <MAXTOR ATLAS15K2_73SCA JNZ6>
2 Online 68.4G 0:4.0 ses0 <MAXTOR ATLAS15K2_73SCA JNZ6>
3 Online 68.4G 0:8.0 ses0 <MAXTOR ATLAS15K2_73SCA JNZ6>
4 Online 68.4G 1:10.0 ses1 <MAXTOR ATLAS15K2_73SCA JNZ6>
5 Online 68.4G 1:12.0 ses1 <MAXTOR ATLAS15K2_73SCA JNZ6>
ami0 1 Online 341G sd1 RAID5
0 Online 68.4G 0:1.0 ses0 <MAXTOR ATLAS15K2_73SCA JNZ6>
1 Online 68.4G 0:3.0 ses0 <MAXTOR ATLAS15K2_73SCA JNZ6>
2 Online 68.4G 0:5.0 ses0 <MAXTOR ATLAS15K2_73SCA JNZ6>
3 Online 68.4G 1:9.0 ses1 <MAXTOR ATLAS15K2_73SCA JNZ6>
4 Online 68.4G 1:11.0 ses1 <MAXTOR ATLAS15K2_73SCA JNZ6>
5 Online 68.4G 1:13.0 ses1 <MAXTOR ATLAS15K2_73SCA JNZ6>
This shows that userland knows which controllers are tied to which
system disks, which drives are backing it, and which ses/safte devices
are managing the those drive in the enclosure.
So, if someone has one to give or loan on a semi-permanent basis,
please let me know.
Thanks.
