Hi,

There is no documentation on anything related to this that I know of. Sorry. These are decent cards, but there seems to be little chance that Adaptec or IBM will support online management under FreeBSD.
Thanks for the reply.
I looked through the driver code and wrote an "ipsstat" utility that uses the user command ioctl to query what is going on. The output isn't pretty; my main purpose is to have someone be notified if a logical drive goes into degraded mode.
Example output below. The implementation is pretty straightforward; I'm happy to hand out the source.
Regards,
Jan.
