did you create logical devices using tw_cli?  a pity none of these cards
seem to support proper JBOD mode.  in 9650's case it's especially bad,
since pulling a drive will *renumber* the logical devices without
notifying the OS.  quite scary!

if you've created the devices, try running devfsadm once more.

Hi,

It's a few day now that I try to use a 9650SE 3ware controller to work on 
opensolaris and I found the following problem :
the tw driver seems work, I can see my controller whith the tw_cli of 3ware. I 
can see that 2 drives are created with the controller, but when I try to use 
pfexec format, it doesn't detect the drive. 

I use : SunOS nas-ceat 5.11 snv_131 i86pc i386 i86pc Solaris with the latest 
version of the driver of the 3ware support. 

Someone can help me to solve my problem ? 

Thanks in advance,

Alex

I am using one and it works with hotswap and all, but you can not 
install to a drive on the controller.


The performance is ok, I am using it with 8 x 1 TB seagates and it has 
been working with monitoring, 3dmd and all but if I was going to do it 
again I had choosen a adaptec or lsi controller so I could run the OS 
from the drives on the controller.

didn't work too well for me.  it's fast and nice for a couple of days,
then the driver gets slower and slower, and eventually it gets stuck and
all I/O freezes.  preventive reboots were needed.  I used the newest
driver from 3ware/AMCC with 2008.11 and 2009.05.

I use the Beta 9.5.3 ISO Opensolaris package with OSOL DEV131 build - I had the 
3ware support team help me. It works like a charm on my 9650se-24m8 with 20

Thanks for the feedback lads... dont really need the boot drives to be 
on the array... was going to use the onboard controller for that... got 
an adaptec card already, so might look at those again...
