I have an IBM x340 that I wish to run Solaris 10 on. It comes with a ServeRAID 4L, so I'm trying to use the ips driver, which seems to be working well for the most part. Thanks, Javen!
However, the drives I am seeing from Solaris both have the same device id, which makes it impossible to use SVM on them. (metadb complains that slices on the two different drives overlap, since it thinks they are the same device.) Here's some iostat output: # iostat -Ei sd0 Soft Errors: 2 Hard Errors: 0 Transport Errors: 0 Vendor: IBM Product: ServerRAID Revision: V1.0 Device Id: id1,[EMAIL PROTECTED] Size: 18.20GB <18200133120 bytes> Media Error: 0 Device Not Ready: 0 No Device: 0 Recoverable: 0 Illegal Request: 2 Predictive Failure Analysis: 0 sd1 Soft Errors: 4 Hard Errors: 0 Transport Errors: 0 Vendor: IBM Product: ServerRAID Revision: V1.0 Device Id: id1,[EMAIL PROTECTED] Size: 18.20GB <18200133120 bytes> Media Error: 0 Device Not Ready: 0 No Device: 0 Recoverable: 0 Illegal Request: 4 Predictive Failure Analysis: 0 Is there anything the ips driver can do about this? I've looked around for solutions to having a duplicate devid, but the only possible solutions either involve using the impossible-to-find rwdevid tool, or changing the driver. Or perhaps there's something I can do with IBM's ServeRAID tools to affect this? I'm not entirely clear on how devids are generated. By the way, is the ips driver open source? I haven't been able to find the source anywhere. -- Andrew Deason [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ driver-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/driver-discuss
