 Hi all,
 I have been looking high and low for instructions on how to get 3.9
running on an x4100. Not finding any, I decided to play w/ it myself. I was able to make it work. While I have included the entire dmesg, here is
the interesting (for the SAS controller, anyway) bit:

mpi0 at pci2 dev 3 function 0 "Symbios Logic SAS1064" rev 0x02: apic 6 int
0 (irq 11)
scsibus0 at mpi0: 63 targets
sd0 at scsibus0 targ 2 lun 0: <LSILOGIC, Logical Volume, 3000> SCSI2
0/direct fixed
sd0: 69618MB, 69618 cyl, 16 head, 128 sec, 512 bytes/sec, 142577664 sec total

ooh, so pretty. how well does it perform?


The kernel is the bsd.mp from the amd64 snapshots section, and the rest of
the system is amd64 3.9

dont mix current and stable.

Here are the things I don't understand, and would like some insight into:

1. I'm getting all kinds of fan failure warnings, system and cpu overheat warnings, etc. This only happens under OpenBSD. The machine is cold to the
touch.

where are these warnings being presented? ipmi was disabled in current toward the end of last week.

these machines also have a problem where they report bogus cutoffs for some of the values, im not sure how we're supposed to address that problem.

2. I can't seem to get sensorsd working. I get an error about allocating
memory. Thoughts?

don't mix a stable userland with a current kernel. there have been changes to sensors since 3.9 that could cause issues like this.

3. I get the following when connecting to the remote console via the iLOM:
uhidev0: bad input length 8 != 0
I get it once per keystroke, and have no idea how to fix it...

interesting. i'd have to play on one of these boxes to see whats going on.

care to ship me one? ;)
