Howdy, I recently installed a new Dell SAS 5/E card to my PE2950 to drive a PowerVault 124T (the server also has an embedded Perc5i and a Perc6e to control an MD1000).
During the maintenance window I also reinstalled the server using CentOS 5.5 x86_64. The internal RAID and Perc6e are working fine. The SAS 5/E, however, doesn't show a link light when connected to the 124T. I installed OpenManage via the repo: $ sudo wget -q -O - http://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/latest/bootstrap.cgi | bash $ sudo yum install srvadmin-all $ sudo /opt/dell/srvadmin/sbin/srvadmin-services.sh start The OpenManage web page shows the SAS 5/e in PCI slot 2. Also via the lspci command shows that it is installed: $ /sbin/lspci | grep SAS 0a:00.0 RAID bus controller: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic MegaRAID SAS 1078 (rev 04) 0f:08.0 SCSI storage controller: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic SAS1068 PCI-X Fusion-MPT SAS (rev 01) Omreport, however, doesn't see the card: omreport storage controller | grep ^Name Name : PERC 5/i Integrated Name : PERC 6/E Adapter I figure I need to install the driver for this card. How do I do this using the repository? I recall that there is some sort of hardware discovery that can be passed to yum, but I can't seem to find the example on the Dell Linux wiki.
