Re: dell Power Edge 2950
No idea. The systems are remote to me, so I can't check. BTW it's called patrol read. I was just having a particularly cynical day. The PR confirms that manually initiating one with megacli causes a hard lock. It could be a linux32 compat issue sending the command or it could be the driver interacting with the feature ... either way, I blame Dell. I guess I'm still bitter. ~BAS ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
