I got a mistake. My hard drives are SAS, not SATA. -Mensagem original- De: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Em nome de Ricardo Augusto de Souza Enviada em: quinta-feira, 23 de outubro de 2008 14:49 Para: misc@openbsd.org Assunto: OpenBSD on IBM System X3550 7879 Hi, I am trying to install openBSD 4.3 -stable in a IBM System X3550 7879 (https://www-304.ibm.com/systems/support/supportsite.wss/docdisplay?lndo cid=M IGR-64315brandind=508 ) but install didn4t found hard disks. I used IBM Server Guide to create array. My server has 4GB RAM. HD is SATA 15000 RPM. Anyone already run openBSD in a server like this? Suggestions? Thanks

What do u mean with mini menu after post? I created RAID using IBM ServerGuide 7.4.13 I also tested with no RAID.. it also failed. -Mensagem original- De: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Em nome de Marcin Enviada em: quinta-feira, 23 de outubro de 2008 15:50 Para: misc@openbsd.org Assunto: Re: OpenBSD on IBM System X3550 7879 2008/10/23 John Nietzsche [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I have tried on an IBM server, but could not get it working. If you succed, let me know. I believe raid controller is not supported. Hello, I'm not sure if this could be of any help, but I had very similar problems with installation of Linux, until I found out that you HAVE TO create raid array or the controller won't expose drives to the OS. I expected it to work in a kind of pass-through mode by default, when you can access drives from the OS, but this wasn't the case. So, please make sure you have created a RAID using mini menu after POST, before you start OpenBSD installation process Regards, -- Marcin

I just got an email from Marcos Laufer and he already contacted Adaptec. It seems he have some 'news'. I hope they are good news. I was reading his posts and I am very disappointed with Adaptec and IBM. I will also email them about it. I also found this: http://www.adaptec.com/en-US/downloads/unix/sco_unix?productId=ASR-2120Sdn=A daptec+SCSI+RAID+2120S It4s adaptec driver to Unix SCO. Is this usefull to solve this current problem? -Mensagem original- De: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Em nome de Ricardo Augusto de Souza Enviada em: quinta-feira, 23 de outubro de 2008 17:24 Para: misc@openbsd.org Assunto: RES: OpenBSD on IBM System X3550 7879 Finally here is the dmesg OpenBSD 4.3 (RAMDISK_CD) #645: Wed Mar 12 11:31:03 MDT 2008 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/RAMDISK_CD cpu0: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5405 @ 2.00GHz (GenuineIntel 686-class) 2 GHz cpu0: FPU,V86,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,PAE,MCE,CX8,APIC,SEP,MTRR,PGE,MCA,CMOV,PAT,PSE36, CF LUSH,DS,ACPI,MMX,FXSR,SSE,SSE2,SS,HTT,TM,SBF,SSE3,MWAIT,DS-CPL,VMX,TM2,C X16,xTPR real mem = 3220541440 (3071MB) avail mem = 3122683904 (2978MB) mainbus0 at root bios0 at mainbus0: AT/286+ BIOS, date 02/08/08, BIOS32 rev. 0 @ 0xfd841, SMBIOS rev. 2.4 @ 0xbffcee80 (86 entries) bios0: vendor IBM version -[GFE136BUS-1.09]- date 02/08/2008 bios0: IBM IBM System x3550 -[7978B1U]- acpi0 at bios0: rev 2, can't enable ACPI bios0: ROM list: 0xc/0xb000 0xcb000/0x1800 0xcc800/0x1800 0xce000/0x5000! cpu0 at mainbus0 pci0 at mainbus0 bus 0: configuration mode 1 (no bios) pchb0 at pci0 dev 0 function 0 Intel 5000X Host rev 0x31 ppb0 at pci0 dev 2 function 0 Intel 5000 PCIE x8 rev 0x31 pci1 at ppb0 bus 16 ppb1 at pci1 dev 0 function 0 Intel 6321ESB PCIE rev 0x01 pci2 at ppb1 bus 17 ppb2 at pci2 dev 0 function 0 Intel 6321ESB PCIE rev 0x01 pci3 at ppb2 bus 19 ppb3 at pci2 dev 1 function 0 Intel 6321ESB PCIE rev 0x01 pci4 at ppb3 bus 18 ppb4 at pci1 dev 0 function 3 Intel 6321ESB PCIE-PCIX rev 0x01 pci5 at ppb4 bus 20 ppb5 at pci0 dev 3 function 0 Intel 5000 PCIE rev 0x31 pci6 at ppb5 bus 35 ppb6 at pci0 dev 4 function 0 Intel 5000 PCIE x8 rev 0x31 pci7 at ppb6 bus 7 ppb7 at pci0 dev 5 function 0 Intel 5000 PCIE rev 0x31 pci8 at ppb7 bus 34 ppb8 at pci0 dev 6 function 0 Intel 5000 PCIE rev 0x31 pci9 at ppb8 bus 3 ppb9 at pci9 dev 0 function 0 ServerWorks PCIE-PCIX rev 0xc3 pci10 at ppb9 bus 4 bnx0 at pci10 dev 0 function 0 Broadcom BCM5708 rev 0x12: irq 7 ppb10 at pci0 dev 7 function 0 Intel 5000 PCIE rev 0x31 pci11 at ppb10 bus 2 Adaptec ASR-2120S rev 0x02 at pci11 dev 0 function 0 not configured Intel 5000 DMA rev 0x31 at pci0 dev 8 function 0 not configured pchb1 at pci0 dev 16 function 0 Intel 5000 Error Reporting rev 0x31 pchb2 at pci0 dev 16 function 1 Intel 5000 Error Reporting rev 0x31 pchb3 at pci0 dev 16 function 2 Intel 5000 Error Reporting rev 0x31 pchb4 at pci0 dev 17 function 0 Intel 5000 Reserved rev 0x31 pchb5 at pci0 dev 19 function 0 Intel 5000 Reserved rev 0x31 pchb6 at pci0 dev 21 function 0 Intel 5000 FBD rev 0x31 pchb7 at pci0 dev 22 function 0 Intel 5000 FBD rev 0x31 ppb11 at pci0 dev 28 function 0 Intel 6321ESB PCIE rev 0x09 pci12 at ppb11 bus 5 ppb12 at pci12 dev 0 function 0 ServerWorks PCIE-PCIX rev 0xc3 pci13 at ppb12 bus 6 bnx1 at pci13 dev 0 function 0 Broadcom BCM5708 rev 0x12: irq 3 uhci0 at pci0 dev 29 function 0 Intel 6321ESB USB rev 0x09: irq 5 uhci1 at pci0 dev 29 function 1 Intel 6321ESB USB rev 0x09: irq 11 uhci2 at pci0 dev 29 function 2 Intel 6321ESB USB rev 0x09: irq 5 ehci0 at pci0 dev 29 function 7 Intel 6321ESB USB rev 0x09: irq 5 usb0 at ehci0: USB revision 2.0 uhub0 at usb0 Intel EHCI root hub rev 2.00/1.00 addr 1 ppb13 at pci0 dev 30 function 0 Intel 82801BA Hub-to-PCI rev 0xd9 pci14 at ppb13 bus 1 vga1 at pci14 dev 1 function 0 ATI ES1000 rev 0x02 wsdisplay0 at vga1 mux 1: console (80x25, vt100 emulation) ichpcib0 at pci0 dev 31 function 0 Intel 6321ESB LPC rev 0x09: PM disabled pciide0 at pci0 dev 31 function 1 Intel 6321ESB IDE rev 0x09: DMA, channel 0 c onfigured to compatibility, channel 1 configured to compatibility atapiscsi0 at pciide0 channel 0 drive 0 scsibus0 at atapiscsi0: 2 targets cd0 at scsibus0 targ 0 lun 0: HL-DT-ST, RW/DVD GCC-T10N, 1.00 SCSI0 5/cdrom re movable cd0(pciide0:0:0): using PIO mode 4, Ultra-DMA mode 2 pciide0: channel 1 ignored (disabled) Intel 6321ESB SMBus rev 0x09 at pci0 dev 31 function 3 not configured usb1 at uhci0: USB revision 1.0 uhub1 at usb1 Intel UHCI root hub rev 1.00/1.00 addr 1 usb2 at uhci1: USB revision 1.0 uhub2 at usb2 Intel UHCI root hub rev 1.00/1.00 addr 1 usb3 at uhci2: USB revision 1.0 uhub3 at usb3 Intel UHCI root hub rev 1.00/1.00 addr 1 isa0 at ichpcib0 isadma0 at isa0 pckbc0 at isa0 port 0x60/5 pckbd0 at pckbc0 (kbd slot) pckbc0: using irq 1 for kbd slot wskbd0 at pckbd0: console keyboard, using wsdisplay0 npx0
Re: RES: OpenBSD on IBM System X3550 7879
I just got an email from Marcos Laufer and he already contacted Adaptec. It seems he have some 'news'. I hope they are good news. If Adaptec had good news, they would probably have told us here is the documentation you asked for in the last 6 years since we asked. There is nothing they will tell you that has any benefit to us. Don't If you find something out, don't bother telling the mailing lists. There would be no point, since it will just be nice words; nice, but useful, and as lying and deceitful as their words for the last 6 years. If Adaptec wanted to change the situation, they have had more than enough time.
RES: RES: OpenBSD on IBM System X3550 7879
Theo, I will keep bothering Adaptec and IBM then. There is a popular speech in my country ( I am brazilian). It is: I am brazilian and I WILL NEVER GIVE UP. One day they will wake up and I hope to be alive to see it happening. Btw, Is this true: http://mongers.org/openbsd/hardware Cause there you said you use adaptec. Wow.. how come? If it not work under openbsd, you should not even suggest/say their name. right? I tought my problem is due to my SAS hard drives. If we wont able to have it working, I will replace my Adaptec controller. I already mailed my local IBM vendor about that. I don't want cause any trouble. I just love using OpenBSD and I mailed this list cause I bought a US$6000 server and its still off. I don't wanna see it running windows 2003( bleh ).
