The controller connects to two disk shelves (expanders), one per port on the card. If you look back in the thread, you'll see our zpool config has one vdev per shelf. All of the disks are Western Digital (model WD1002FBYS-18A6B0) 1TB 7.2K, firmware rev. 03.00C06. Without actually matching up the disks with "stuck" IOs, I am assuming they are all on the same vdev/shelf/controller port.
I communicated with LSI support directly regarding the v1.29 firmware update, and here's what they wrote back: "I have checked with our development team on this one. There are no release notes available as the functionality of the coding itself has not changed. This was a minor cleanup and the firmware was assigned a new phase number for these. There were no defects or added functionality in going from the P16 firmware to the P17 firmware." Also, regarding the NCQ depth on the drives I used the LSIUTIL in expert mode and used options 13/14 to dump the following settings (which are all default): Multi-pathing: [0=Disabled, 1=Enabled, default is 0] SATA Native Command Queuing: [0=Disabled, 1=Enabled, default is 1] SATA Write Caching: [0=Disabled, 1=Enabled, default is 1] SATA Maximum Queue Depth: [0 to 255, default is 32] Device Missing Report Delay: [0 to 2047, default is 0] Device Missing I/O Delay: [0 to 255, default is 0] Persistence: [0=Disabled, 1=Enabled, default is 1] Physical mapping: [0=None, 1=DirectAttach, 2=EnclosureSlot, default is 0] -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
