I'm quite happy so far with my LSI cards, which replaced a couple of the Supermicro Marvell cards: # scanpci ... pci bus 0x0007 cardnum 0x00 function 0x00: vendor 0x1000 device 0x0058 LSI Logic / Symbios Logic SAS1068E PCI-Express Fusion-MPT SAS On Wed, Apr 22, 2009 at 2:45 AM, James Andrewartha wrote: > myxi...@googlemail.com wrote: >> Bouncing a thread from the device drivers list: >> http://opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?messageID=357176 >> >> Does anybody know if OpenSolaris will support this new Supermicro card, >> based on the Marvell 88SE6480 chipset?

The Linux support for the 6480 builds on the 6440 mvsas support, so I don't think marvell88sx would work, and there doesn't seem to be a Marvell SAS driver for Solaris at all, so I'd say it's not supported. http://www.hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1397855 has a fair few people testing it out, but mostly under Windows. -- James Andrewartha ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
