RE: Adaptec 2410SA Raid and Hot swapping
Hey, I have a couple Adaptec 2410SA Raid cards (aac driver) and I was wondering if anyone has had any luck with being able to hotswap drives in FreeBSD 6? If the Adaptec card is no good for hot swapping under FreeBSD, what's the recommended brand? Thanks Daniel I've 2230SLP which hot-swapped no problem under FBSD 5.4 and I doubt it'll have issues with 6.x . Though performance write speed is very bad!

Tamouh Did you use the aaccli tool to initiate/powerdown the drives and rebuild the array? Nope, didn't need to do. Just removed the hot-swap drive, replaced it. The controller picked-up the new drive and rebuilt the RAID. This was RAID-5. The aaccli tool stopped working with the latest card firmware, so now there is no way to manage the card from within FreeBSD. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Are you using the FreeBSD aaccli or the Linux aaccli under the linux compatibility stuff? Try the aaccli from Linux (download from Adaptec directly). I have the latest 2200s firmware and it works fine from FreeBSD.
