Hello, I have a dell with 2 dual xeon 6 cores, dual thread cpus (24 logical cpus) with that famous perc6 controller, running FreeBSD 8.2 and with journaling FS (one partition) and 2 SAS drivers of 160GB.
The controller blocks almost all the time.. message is timeout..... I used the mfi config utility (in the ports) and enable write cache. it now works ok (no more timeouts) but sometimes (once a week) it panics the system. A fix in the gjournal appears today (cvsup) and I hope it can fix the problem... _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
