Where are my drives?

2010-03-26 Thread Slack-Moehrle
Hi All,

I have not really used FreeBSD in a very long time.

FreeBSD 8.
500gb boot
8 x 1.5tb drives installed connected to a 3ware 9500S-8 card

I am trying to see what the 8 x 1.5tb drives are called and if they are 
recognized.

I read that FreeBSD 8 has the driver for 3ware by default.

I added a twa_load=YES to /boot/loader.conf as well as lines for ZFS

I do a: egrep 'ad[0-9]|cd[0-9]' /var/run/dmesg.boot
and I just see my DVD (acd0) and my 500gb SATA (ad4)

How to I add these drives? When I start the machine, I see the 8 drives listed 
during BIOS post, attached to the 3ware card.

What do I do to get my drives recognized?

Hi:

Can you please paste your dmesg? Do you create an array on the 3ware?

mmm, interesante.

Diego,

 I am trying to see what the 8 x 1.5tb drives are called and if they are 
 recognized. 

I read that FreeBSD 8 has the driver for 3ware by default. 

I added a twa_load=YES to /boot/loader.conf as well as lines for ZFS 

I do a: egrep 'ad[0-9]|cd[0-9]' /var/run/dmesg.boot 
and I just see my DVD (acd0) and my 500gb SATA (ad4) 

How to I add these drives? When I start the machine, I see the 8 drives 
listed during BIOS post, attached to the 3ware card. 

Can you please paste your dmesg? Do you create an array on the 3ware? 

My dmesg shows the 3ware card installed (twa0)and shows ZFS running.

I have not created an array on the card because I want to do RAIDZ3 so wouldn't 
the card just ask as pass through? If I go into the card when the system boots, 
I see all of my drives, but I only have option for RAID 5, 10, 50.

Do you have more thoughts?

Well, going into the card Bios and creating each drive as a single drive seems 
to have done the trick, FreeBSD now sees them.
