Hi Peter, hi list, >> If you have a SAS controller attached via the mpt_sas driver, for >> instance, you can absolutely expect hot plugged disks to go away and >> return automatically. If not, then you are experiencing bugs in the >> system and should report them as such so that we can fix them.
>Absolutely. And, to return to the original question, the on-board >SAS controllers on the T3-1 use mpt_sas, and hotplug just works. >(I still use cfgadm, but as a way to toggle the LEDs if the system >hasn't done so itself - such as when replacing a drive that is starting >to go bad but hasn't failed hard yet.) fist thing I noticed is that the T3-1 indeed works with 8 drives from its internal SAS controller. Good! Now one thing I haven't managed to do yet is using cfgadm to switch locator and fault LEDs. # cfgadm -la Ap_Id Type Receptacle Occupant Condition c2 scsi-sas connected configured unknown c2::dsk/c2t6d0 CD-ROM connected configured unknown c4 scsi-sas connected configured unknown c4::w5000cca00a34873d,0 disk-path connected configured unknown c5 scsi-sas connected configured unknown c5::w5000c5005f6fbadd,0 disk-path connected configured unknown c6 scsi-sas connected configured unknown c6::w5000cca00a49aacd,0 disk-path connected configured unknown c7 scsi-sas connected configured unknown c7::w5000cca00a372291,0 disk-path connected configured unknown c8 scsi-sas connected unconfigured unknown c9 scsi-sas connected configured unknown c9::w5000cca00a372421,0 disk-path connected configured unknown c10 scsi-sas connected configured unknown c10::w5000cca00a4909c5,0 disk-path connected configured unknown c11 scsi-sas connected configured unknown c11::w5000cca00a49bdad,0 disk-path connected configured unknown c12 scsi-sas connected configured unknown c12::w5000cca00a46586d,0 disk-path connected configured unknown c13 scsi-sas connected unconfigured unknown c14 scsi-bus connected unconfigured unknown ... # cfgadm -x locator c4::w5000cca00a34873d,0 cfgadm: Hardware specific failure: unavailable # Peter, could you share your knowledge on this?
