*grumpy customer* Sadly, it is _not_ the case. And Sun is addressing it. They just aren't sharing with the rest of the class... If you running Solaris 10, as far as I can tell you _still_ need an IDR to have NCQ enabled on the marvell chipset in an X4500 without device resets, as Sun still hasn't released a patch that fixes the bug(s). I could be wrong, but Sun service keeps not answering our requests for clarification / a new U5 IDR. On the up side, it's fixed in OpenSolaris, and you can probably get an IDR if you have a support contract and scream loudly enough. -- Carson _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
