Not sure about that but I do know that illumos-based systems have issues with the RAID controller in the Microserver G7 and G8 versions. Do you have the license file for full RAID funcionality? I would suggest to switch the SATA controller to AHCI mode and use ZFS for RAID. Note that one of the many design peculiarities of the G8 is that disk slots #0 and #1 are 6GBit SATA, but #2 and #3 are only 3GBit. We only run SmartOS on G8 here, and it works fine in AHCI mode.

Did I missed a package to install? Are you able to switch the controller from RAID mode to AHCI mode? Cheers. -- Joshua M.

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 I own an HP Microserver Gen8 and want to run OI onto it. The Installation went smooth, but I can't get the Raid Controller running. I had read, that omnios (?) has driver (packages) for this controller. Because Freenas, TrueNAS and Proxmox could access the the drives (and access the zpools onto it), I wonder, why OI can't handle it. Any suggestions? Did I missed a package to install?
