I actually updated Nicola's code to make it work on FreeBSD/amd64:

http://www.nagiosexchange.org/Hardware.56.0.html?&tx_netnagext_pi1[page]=10%3A10

I posted my changes back to nagiosexchange, as I encourage you
(Jonathan) to do so the same (hopefully the Apache license is okay with
this):

P.S. Nicola, nick Dick Cheney post on your blog.  Also, be sure to check
out "Jose Chung’s From Outer Space".  Season 3, Episode 20.

2007-06-07 Thread Jonathan Delgado
The patches seem to have made their way into 6_RELENG yesterday  
(6/6/07).


I did a fresh rebuild on one of my 1950s with 6_RELENG and it seems  
to now work as expected. Hopefully this makes it's way into the next  
release. I don't follow things close enough to get a sense of if this  
is the type of change that could get merged into 6.2 (it would be  
nice though).


On a quasi-related note, I'm not how many people out there are using  
MegaCli in order to do some Nagios-based monitoring, but I wrote my  
own humble Nagios plugin for it and it is at http://www.techno- 
obscura.com/~delgado/weblog/archives/2007/06/check_megaraid.html  
(there is a check_perc5i plugin on Nagios Exchange, but I had issues  
with it so I wrote my own). I have been using it with my Linux  
systems so far, but look forwarding to being able to slap it on our  
new FreeBSD boxes now.

2007-04-10 Thread Jonathan Delgado
   I will also note that it is not an issue of compatibility between  
the LSI-provided MegaCli and the Dell PERC5/i. I use the exact same  
RPM under SuSE's SLES10 on the same hardware without any problems.

   From what I have been able to dig up from past posts to the

I'm not sure if any have been specifically with 6.2 and the PERC5/i  
controller. If anyone has any clues or tips for how to proceed with  
this, it would be much appreciated.

megacli and PERC5 (PowerEdge 1950) on 6.2

2007-04-09 Thread Jonathan Delgado

Hi,

   I have some Dell PowerEdge 1950 servers equipped with their PERC5/ 
i SAS RAID controller (OEM is LSI). In general they work fine. The  
mfi driver is being used and I get some occassional blurbs logged by  
the driver. I am having poor results though trying to get the megacli  
port (sysutils/linux-megacli) to work with it.


   For example, if I call 'megacli -AdpAllInfo -aALL' I get junk/ 
empty output like:

Adapter #0

   I am getting this result with multiple systems, one running 6.2- 
RELEASE p3, the other a recent (as of today) build of 6.2-STABLE. I  
am using linux_base-fc-4_9 for the Linux compat install, and the  
specific package of megacli is linux-megacli-1.01.09_1. linprocfs and  
linsysfs are both mounted. mfi_linux.ko is loaded. The device seems  
to be recognized within the linux subsystem, as I have:


# cat /compat/linux/sys/class/scsi_host/host0/proc_name
megaraid_sas

   From what I have been able to dig up from past posts to the  
mailing lists: others have been able to get this working fine, but  
I'm not sure if any have been specifically with 6.2 and the PERC5/i  
controller. If anyone has any clues or tips for how to proceed with  
this, it would be much appreciated.


   Thanks.

-Jonathan
