Hi All,
Two questions regarding the new POWER9 servers (in this case, AC922) and
provisioning ppc64le:
1.) From documentation and mknb, it appears that creating a working ppc64le
for POWER9 nodes is not yet supported. Does anyone know a workaround, or
know when this feature might be released?
2.) Also, has anyone used iprconfig, diskdiscover and configraid to
discover/configure hardware RAID on Power9? From what I can tell, no RAID
solution was configured for the nodes, so the 2 disks appear to be
un-RAIDed (show up as 2 distinct devices).
There does not seem to be anything in Petitboot, or similar at boot time,
that looks like a RAID configurator (like the Intel RAID one would see on
e.g. a Supermicro x86 machine). Have folks used hardware RAID on POWER9
machines, or have they used some software RAID solution, in conjunction
with xCAT deployment?
Many Thanks,
Keith
