Could Sun'x x4540 Thumper reason to have 6 LSI's some sort of "hidden" problems found by Sun where the HBA resets, and due to market time pressure the "quick and dirty" solution was to spread the load over multiple HBA's instead of software fix?
I don't think so. X4540 has 48 disks -- 6 controllers at 8 disks/ controller. This is the same configuration as the X4500, which used a Marvell controller.
This decision leverages parts from the previous design. -- richard _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
