Upon doing this; sysctl -a | grep mps I get this; dev.mps.0.driver_version: 14.00.00.01-fbsd LSIs site mentions the latest drives at being 17.00.00.00 I'll go ahead and install the latest to see what happens. Whats the best way to do this, I assume build it and load via loader.conf? - aurf ___ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"

What are the firmwares for > those HBAs? Hi, So the firmware versions are as follows; Intel RS25GB008 which is a rebadged LSI 9207-8e which uses the LSI 2308 controller; Intel firmware13.00.66.00-IT LSI 9206-16e which uses the LSI 2308 controller as well; LSI firmware 17.00.01.00-IT Should I specifically set any of the card settings like "hook int" or "bypass int hook"... etc...? - aurf ___ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"

What are the firmwares for > those HBAs? Well, the 2 LSI 9207s are rebadge Intel being Intel RS25GB008 ( http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/servers/raid/raid-controller-rs25gb008.html ) with the latest Intel firmware. The lone 9206-16e has the latest LSI firmware. Shall I downgrade to a particular version? I would love to resolve this performance oddity. Thanks for getting back to me, I know its a weird one with an annoying subject as its apples and oranges. I would be happy to get you exact info of anything I have, so feel free. - aurf ___ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
