Yes, you are correct. I remembered it wrong. The option takes 0, 1, 2
and 3 as argument. The default is 0 if the option is not present.

I hope so too. While we don't have any H200 controllers we have the same
problem with drivers for the SAS 6/iR. The RHEL driver is older than
OMSA likes. I'd rather use an out of date RHEL driver than a "custom
Dell driver", so I'm also a user of the 'ctrl_driver' blacklisting
keyword :)

I've seen drivers for the Dell controllers being updated in RHEL in the
past, so hopefully the problem will be fixed with RHEL5.6.
