PERC6 and PE1950
Hello all: I know this has been discussed here before but last I heard people continue to have issues with new PE1950. I'd like to have a positive confirmation that new mfi driver will support PERC6i from Marco or someone who actually has new 1.16 driver working with it before we make a purchase. Thank you, Stas.

Re: PE1950
We have a few PE1950s and they all came with PERC5 but the new ones I've been quoting up are PERC6's. So it definitely a new addition. > PERC6 does not work yet with out mfi driver but I am also pretty sure > those aren't really available yet. I'm confused. So does it or does it not work with mfi driver? thank you, Stas. - Original Message From: Claer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: misc@openbsd.org Sent: Thursday, November 22, 2007 3:44:01 AM Subject: Re: PE1950 On Wed, Nov 21 2007 at 56:15, Marco Peereboom wrote: > This machines works fine with 4.2. > > PERC6 does not work yet with out mfi driver but I am also pretty sure > those aren't really available yet. The last PE 1950 we bought (2 months ago) came with PERC 5. I heard that new hardware should arrive near december for the PE 1950.

PE1950
Hello, I'm planning on running OpenBSD 4.2 on Dell Power Edge 1950. Question 1: How stable is it on x64 platform? I mean native 64 bit code. I assume that x86 code will run just fine ... Question 2: Does anyone know if PERC 6 RAID controller is supported. The hardware list says that it will work with PERC 5 and I'm wondering if the same driver will detect and support the chipset on PERC 6 controller. Any feedback would be appreciated. Regards, Stas.

Re: filesystems?
I certainly wouldn't try writing to NTFS filesystem on any system other then
winnt especially in production.
I don't think it's actually possible to
shrink NTFS partition in a "Microsoft supported way" only "extend" it with
diskpart.

How stable a driver is doesn't indicate the actual level of success
writing {safely,properly,sanely} to a problematic filesystem.like
NTFS. It may
successfully corrupt data without crashing or throwing
errors at all.

Re: apr proxy problem
yeah well, the problem is really with one of the windows servers in a NLB multicast cluster. Two identically configured (to my knowledge) VPN servers have two different IP address pools for incoming connections and the problem is that one server once the connection is established responds to ARP requests for the client IP with correct true interface MAC and the other server responds with virtual cluster MAC. ARP proxy seems to be a working remedy for this issue but in reality it's not a solution. If I could find out why BSD overwrites static arp entries I can let this issue with VPN cook a little longer. regards, S. - Original Message From: Bryan Irvine <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Stanislav Ovcharenko <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: misc@openbsd.org Sent: Thursday, September 6, 2007 1:09:16 AM Subject: Re: apr proxy problem On 9/5/07, Stanislav Ovcharenko <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I need to have ARP proxy running on my router/firewall loaded with OpenBSD > 4.0. > I'm seeing some behavior that is contradictory to what arp man page > says. > > arp -an | grep em1 says > (111.111.111.111) at 00:cc:00:cc:00:cc > on em1 > permanent static published > > and than ... > > cat > /var/log/messages | grep em1 > tells me that > Sep 5 14:11:11 XXXYYY /bsd: arp > info overwritten for > 111.111.111.111 by 00:aa:00:aa:00:aa on em1 > > which is > contrary to what arp > man page says about permanent attribute and what one would > expect. > > any info > why this is happening would be greatly appreciated, > thanks for looking. I had nothing but problems when trying to use arp proxy. I'd ditch it and try something else (if possible). What's the eventual goal? --Bryan _ ___ Need a vacation?

apr proxy problem
I need to have ARP proxy running on my router/firewall loaded with OpenBSD 4.0. I'm seeing some behavior that is contradictory to what arp man page says. arp -an | grep em1 says (111.111.111.111) at 00:cc:00:cc:00:cc on em1 permanent static published and than ... cat /var/log/messages | grep em1 tells me that Sep 5 14:11:11 XXXYYY /bsd: arp info overwritten for 111.111.111.111 by 00:aa:00:aa:00:aa on em1 which is contrary to what arp man page says about permanent attribute and what one would expect. any info why this is happening would be greatly appreciated, thanks for looking. _ ___ Luggage?
