Daniel, You may consider to try LSI 9211-8I HBA.
I found 6G HBA work better in our environment Rocky -----Original Message----- From: storage-discuss-boun...@opensolaris.org [mailto:storage-discuss-boun...@opensolaris.org] On Behalf Of Daniel J. Priem Sent: Sunday, April 17, 2011 10:57 PM To: storage-discuss@opensolaris.org Subject: [storage-discuss] mpt driver issues Hi, i am running for testing puposes 10 u9 and seeing regular command timeout for Target wich results in hanging the entire system. the only way to "solve" this is resetting the system. i have read so much post about this problems. first my setup was: - sc847e16 with single expander - one lsi 1068 - 24 harddrives problem still exists then i replaced all 24 sata drives with enterprise SAS drives problem still exists then added an additional lsi 1068 so that the front and back have their own controller problem still exists replaced the entire sc847e16 expander chassis with an expanderless, so now all 24 drives are connected to 4 8 channels lsi1068 problem still exists. updated all firmware on controller problem still exists also added set mpt:mpt_enable_msi = 0 set mptsas:mptsas_enable_msi=0 any usefull help is recommend. i am thinking about switching back to 10 u8 for later production use. best regards daniel setup remote syslogging and see: intresting is that all errors begin at the same time. 20:36:26 scsi: [ID 107833 kern.warning] WARNING:
