3 TB disk troubles
I recently bought a 3 TB external hard drive. I attached it to the Firewire (400) bus and waited for my 8.2-STABLE i386 system to recognize it. After a small flurry of Firewire protocol messages, the kernel eventually said, Feb 12 23:35:42 hellas kernel: da2 at sbp0 bus 0 scbus0 target 1 lun 0 Feb 12 23:35:42 hellas kernel: da2: Initio INIC-1615P 0101 Fixed Direct Access SCSI-0 device Feb 12 23:35:42 hellas kernel: da2: 50.000MB/s transfers Feb 12 23:35:42 hellas kernel: da2: 2861588MB (5860533167 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 364801C) So far, so good, I thought. Next I tried to use gpart(8) to set up a partition table. However, gpart, gpte (from sysutils/gpte), diskinfo(8), et al. only see the device as a 2 TB drive. hellas# diskinfo -v /dev/da2 /dev/da2 512 # sectorsize 2199023253504 # mediasize in bytes (2T) 4294967292 # mediasize in sectors 0 # stripesize 0 # stripeoffset 267349 # Cylinders according to firmware. 255 # Heads according to firmware. 63 # Sectors according to firmware. # Disk ident. hellas# I have searched the archives of this list and several others, but haven't found anything helpful.

No, it only has Firewire 400 and USB 2.0 sockets. Your problem resembles a lot something I struggled with a while ago. I'd bought an external hd case + a 3TB drive for my girlfriend , the external hd case supported eSATA and usb . I had a lot of problems when connecting that 3TB drive to my laptop via usb (I didn't have eSATA), the drive showed up as only 2TB . It turned out that the external drive case required to be connected via eSATA for +2TB drives, the manual said so, I had only forgotten about that . Unfortunately, mine did not come with a manual. :-( I suppose I could try it on a USB 2.0 port to see if that makes any difference. Via eSATA the drive was recognized as 3TB, I think the 'problem' was OS agnostic, since the same happened on my girlfriends mac. The confusing thing is that the kernel says it's a 3 TB device, but the utility programs say otherwise. Thanks for your reply, though. I may have to take the device back to the store I bought it and ask them to demonstrate to me that it actually works for them as a 3 TB drive. Sigh. Scott Bennett, Comm.

Why scf (sfcd) monitoring sometimes doesn't work
Hello, I found fsc (http://www.freshports.org/sysutils/fsc/) to be extremely useful.

In fact, I had been needing to get back to you on assuaging those 4 failed patch hunks on your sysinstall work. FreeBSD Druid (both 8.x and 9.x) use sysinstall for disk partitioning. What does sysinstall use, you say? Glad you asked. sysinstall(8) uses a combination of: + libdisk ( see, for example, Set_Boot_Mgr(3) within case 'W' of switch (toupper(key)) in function diskPartition() of file stable/9/usr.sbin/sysinstall/disks.c lines 630-693) http://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/stable/9/usr.sbin/sysinstall/disks.c?revision=225736view=markup and ... + phk code (see, for example, slice_wizard() function in file stable/9/usr.sbin/sysinstall/wizard.c lines 65-201, in-use for case '|' of the same switch above, same function, lines 695-707 of stable/9/usr.sbin/sysinstall/disks.c) http://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/stable/9/usr.sbin/sysinstall/disks.c?revision=225736view=markup http://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/stable/9/usr.sbin/sysinstall/wizard.c?revision=225736view=markup But wait, there's more... The FreeBSD 9 version of my FreeBSD Druid has a patch to perform (only when doing automated/scripted installs): gpart -F destroy ${dest_disk} The reason for this is that if you, say for example, were to try the bsdinstall based media and then want to try sysinstall based media, you're actually prevented from re-formatting that disk into a usable MBR layout until you destroy the GPT backup label stored at the end of the disk. So the FreeBSD Druid for 9.x is basically the same as for 8.x with an additional twist, it has gpart in the mfsroot so that it can do a destroy on the GPT backup data before formatting the disk in automated installations (this destroy command is not done for non-scripted installs). You can see the code here: http://druidbsd.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/druidbsd/druidbsd/druid/src/freebsd/menu/etc/all_install?r1=1.2r2=1.3 http://druidbsd.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/druidbsd/druidbsd/druid/src/freebsd/menu/etc/all_install?revision=1.3view=markup -- Devin _ The information contained in this message is proprietary and/or confidential.

Installing Matlab
I was wondering if anyone has had any recent (or not-so-recent) experience installing Matlab on FreeBSD/PC-BSD? (Yes, I know about octave.) I'm not entirely new to *nix, but I'm novice enough that I can't seem to get this to work. Perhaps the shortest and simplest solution would be if Mathworks own installer would function, but that runs as a Java Web Start application, and I can't seem to get that working in Opera, Firefox, or Konqueror. The automatic rout having failed, I've downloaded the files manually, and I've tried to run the install script; however, it's failed as well. I found this site: http://matrossi.blogspot.com/2011/08/installing-matlab-2011a-on-freebsd.html, which claims installation instructions for PC-BSD8.2 boiling down to: open up the shell scripts and take /bin/sh -- /compat/linux/bin/sh. Well, that seems to help a bit, but it also fails because the install script determines my architecture to be x68, while the downloads are for (what they call) a64. (My system is indeed a 64-bit system. Perhaps the above instructions were for an x86 system.) I feel like if I could modify the install script sufficiently, the install would work. My bash scripting is weak, though, and I worry about screwing up my system and/or the installation. There are only a few functions in there that are looking for architecture type, usually with the output from uname. I think fixing those would work...? Could anyone help me get past this point? Thanks in advance! And please, if there's any info I can provide that would be helpful, please just let me know.

The understanding that looking stuff up in the DNS[*] is never going to return anything from the contents of your /etc/hosts file? You can do a more generic lookup using whatever means are configured in your /etc/nsswitch.conf by: % getent hosts localhost ::1 localhost 127.0.0.1 localhost although with localhost, that really should also be available in the DNS, both forwards and reverse: % dig +short IN A localhost 127.0.0.1 % dig +short IN localhost ::1 % dig +short -x 127.0.0.1 localhost. % dig +short -x ::1 localhost. Although I note that Google's DNS resolver specifically *doesn't* have it... % dig +short @8.8.8.8 -x ::1 % dig +short @8.8.8.8 -x 127.0.0.1 % dig +short @8.8.8.8 localhost % dig +short @8.8.8.8 IN localhost Just a peculiarity of the Google DNS service.

Is this card supported by FreeBSD? Various sources don't state it as being compatible, but I needed to make sure 2). If it IS supported, is it possible to put the card in to target mode on FreeBSD? 3).

Re: Is this an SSD problem or a controller problem?
The analysis done by Jeremy is probably right. The device return errors in response to commands disabling capability that it reported as suppoted and enabled. That is not fatal, but just annoying. Send me please output of the 'camcontrol identify ada15 -v' to check. In case of smartctl I guess there is some more problem causing command timeout and following device reinitialization with the same errors. That may already be fixed in 9-stable branch. 15.02.2013 3:13 пользователь Jeremy Chadwick j...@koitsu.org написал: (Please keep me CC'd as I am not subscribed to this list) (Also CC'ing mav@ since he can shed some light on this too) Re: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2013-February/249183.html It is neither an SSD problem nor a controller problem. FreeBSD is issuing a specific ATA CDB command to the SSD, and the SSD rejects this request, returning ABRT status. This is perfectly normal per ATA specification; the error is harmless. You should open a PR on this matter, as FreeBSD should be adjusted in some manner to deal with this situation, either via appropriate workarounds or a drive quirk. mav@ would know what's best. You will need to provide output from the following commands in your PR: * dmesg * camcontrol identify ada15 * pciconf -lvcb * Same lines you did in your Email Further technical details, which you can put into the PR if you want: Looking at src/sys/cam/ata/ata_all.c we can see that the output of the ACB is in bytes, output per ata_cmd_string().

See SATA 2.6 for more information. The enable/disable state for the auto-activate optimization shall be preserved across software reset. The enable/disable state for the auto-activate optimization shall be reset to its default state upon COMRESET. This feature has to do with NCQ capability for certain types of DMA transfers. src/sys/cam/ata/ata_xpt.c contains the responsible code. I could be wrong here (mav@ please correct me), but in probestart(), there is: 452 case PROBE_SETDMAAA: 453 cam_fill_ataio(ataio, 454 1, 455 probedone, 456 CAM_DIR_NONE, 457 0, 458 NULL, 459 0, 460 30*1000); 461 ata_28bit_cmd(ataio, ATA_SETFEATURES, 462 (softc-caps CTS_SATA_CAPS_H_DMAAA) ? 0x10 : 0x90, 463 0, 0x02); 464 break; CTS_SATA_CAPS_H_DMAAA is defined per include/cam/cam_ccb.h as Auto-activation, and its name implies DMA, so this would match the feature in question. This would explain why you see it when the machine boots (xpt(4) probe), as well as when smartctl is run or smartd starts (uses xpt(4)). However, I noticed this piece of code in probedone(): 739 /* 740 * Some HP SATA disks report supported DMA Auto-Activation, 741 * but return ABORT on attempt to enable it. 742 */ 743 } else if (softc-action == PROBE_SETDMAAA 744 status == CAM_ATA_STATUS_ERROR) { 745 goto noerror; Which makes me scratch my head -- the comment and logic seems to imply there shouldn't be any error condition reported, but you do see one. This also implies that the drive advertises per SATA protocol DMA AA yet when xpt(4) tries to disable it the drive rejects that request with ABRT. I don't know why OCZ rejects disabling that feature, but whatever.
