So I did manage to get everything to work after switching to the Dev repository
and doing a pkg image-update, but what happens when 2010.$spring comes out?
Should I wait a week or so after release and then change my repository back to
standard and then image-update again?
I'm new to Osol;

My rig will be based off of fairly new kit, so it should be interesting to see
how 2009.06 deals with it all
in production.

OK, gotcha.
Relating to my request for robustness feedback of the other driver, I was
referring in fact to the mpt_sas driver that James says is used for the
non-RAID LSI SAS2008-based cards like the SuperMicro AOC-USAS2-L8e (as opposed
to the RAID-capable AOC-USAS2-L8i LSI SAS 9211-8i cards,
Does anyone know if the current OpenSolaris mpt driver supports the recent LSI
SAS2008 controller?
This controller/ASIC is used in the next generation SAS-2 6Gbps PCIe cards from
LSI and SuperMicro etc, e.g.:
1. SuperMicro AOC-USAS2-L8e and the AOC-USAS2-L8i
2. LSI SAS 9211-8i

For the benefit of myself and others then:

Correct. I only know the internal

Now 'knew' ;-)
It's reassuring to hear your points a thru d regarding the development/test
cycle.
I could always use the 'try before you buy' approach: others try it, and if it

We tried the new LSI controllers in our configuration trying to replace Areca
1680 controllers. The tests were done on 2009.06
Unlike the mpt drivers which were rock solid (but obviously do not support the
new chips), the mr_sas was a complete disaster. (We got ours from LSI website).
Timeouts,
Ouch. Was that on the original 2009.06 vanilla install, or a later updated
build? Hopefully a lot of the original bugs have been fixed by now, or soon
will be.
Has anyone got any from the trenches experience of using the mpt_sas driver?
Any comments?
Cheers,
Simon
Vanilla 2009.06, mr_sas drivers from LSI website.
To answer your other question - the mpt driver is very solid on 2009.06

Are you sure those are the open source drivers he's referring to? LSI has a

2009.06 didn't have the drivers integrated, so those aren't the open source
ones. As i said, it is possible
