I had several problems w/ DL360 integrated RAID & kernel 2.6, due to high-performance sheduler settings on latest kernel.
I ended up installing TSL2.2, and everything went fine. Not tested on latest 2.6 kernels: meanwhile I switched work, and now I work on IBM xSeries (and it's quite well supported ips driver) only.
