Re: Serial ATA RAID ctrl on PCI

2008-10-28 Thread Robert Franklin
Did you read the man page for arc(4)? It says right there.

 Have a look at the man -k RAID output.

 Especially arc(4) and ami(4) are great SATA RAID controllers on OpenBSD.

 Does OpenBSD's  arc(4) driver support any method to report RAID status
 and/or failures?

 If not, then how is an admin supposed to understand the health of arc
 supported RAID array?



Re: Quad ethernet card

2007-06-05 Thread Robert Franklin

Why not a qfe card from Sun? I've used a quad port Sun PCI card for at
least a few years in both me Sun AXI servers, and currently I have one
installed in a dell 1550 that works just fine. You can find the Sun
quad cards for really cheap off of ebay. I think I picked mine up for
around $40 USD.

Hi,

I'm planing to set up a new firewall and have a few questions about what
quad ethernet cards people recommend?
The server will probably be a Dell PE860 (they seem to be well supported
by OpenBSD), but what quad cards should i buy? what cards have good
performance?

Best regards

OpenBSD 4.0-CURRENT amd64 ami0: timeout ccb 76

2007-01-01 Thread Robert Franklin

Hi,
I am having problems getting my Asus K8N-LR motherboard and a Symbios Logic
MegaRAID SATA 4x/8x PCI-X controller working together nicely on
OpenBSD 4.0 amd64 current as of 12/30/06 from a snapshot. There are
two 250g SATA drives behind the RAID
controller in a mirrored configuration.

I get the following errors when I run newfs against /dev/rsd0a:

ami0: timeout ccb 76
ami0: timeout ccb 77
sd0: WARNING: cache synchronization failed

the newfs then fails.

I've tried with OpenBSD 4.0-GENERIC amd64, 3.9-GENERIC amd64, and the current
snapshot and all have the same timeout issues. I read in an earlier thread
about enabling acpi in the kernel, and still no go. Below is the dmesg output
from The 4.0-CURRENT amd64 snapshot, including where acpi is enabled.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Robert
