Hi Andrew,
It's weird, I am seeing different devid for different volumes on my
system with my new driver.
Could you help send the output of prtconf -v /dev/dsk/cxtydzp0?
cxtydz means your IBM serveRAID volume.
Acutally, ips doesn't handle EVPD page of inquiry. ips driver return
standard inquiry response.
Solaris will fake a GUID according product ID, vendor ID and revision
number or serial#.
My update ips driver return different product ID for each volume. Like
below:
prtconf -v /dev/dsk/c4t1d0p0
sd, instance #4
----snip----
Hardware properties:
name='devid' type=string items=1
value='id1,[EMAIL PROTECTED]'
name='inquiry-revision-id' type=string items=1
value='V1.0'
name='inquiry-product-id' type=string items=1
value='ServeRAID Vol1'
name='inquiry-device-type' type=int items=1
value=00000000
bash-3.2# prtconf -v /dev/dsk/c4t0d0p0
sd, instance #3
----snip----
Hardware properties:
name='devid' type=string items=1
value='id1,[EMAIL PROTECTED]'
name='inquiry-revision-id' type=string items=1
value='V1.0'
name='inquiry-product-id' type=string items=1
value='ServeRAID Vol0'
name='inquiry-device-type' type=int items=1
value=00000000
----snip----
From above example, you can see two different volume have different
devid property
and different 'inquiry-product-id'.
BTW, can I ask why u want to use SVM on top of RAID volume? Since you
have hardware
RAID, why you need SVM software RAID?
Anyway, we should make ips driver better. Thanks for your information
and testing.
Thanks
Javen
