Hi, I was attempting to have a RAID 5 softraid0 setup on a sparc64 machine (boot log output below) but ran into problems when attempting to create a single partition with the size 5.5TB (RAID 5 with 4 x 2TB hard drives).  I found an interesting problem when using disklabel on the softraid0

Hi, I wanted to check whether an LSI SAS 9211-8i Controller (L3-25250) (also called "Sun Storage 8-Port 6Gbps SAS-2 RAID HBA" SGX-SAS6-INT-Z 375-3640) would work in a Sun SPARC Enterprise T5220.  I was hoping I could rely upon the Symbios Logic SAS2008 card instead of the onboard Symbios

Hi, I believe I found a common hardware RAID PCIe card that is not detected as a mfi device on sparc64.  There are different names for this PCIe card when they are sold with a cheaper card being called a "LSI SAS 9261-8i Controller, MPN L3-25239" sold for roughly $23 USD on ebay.  That card

I previously sent an email regarding the Areca ARC-1880 on sparc64. I also have an Areca ARC-1222i 8 Port PCIe RAID card which I tried with the 7.1 stable release ISO on a SPARC Enterprise T5220. The card is detected as an Areca ARC-1680, which is odd. Are Areca cards not meant to work on

The http://www.openbsd.org/sparc64.html info and the arc manpage claims support for the Areca ARC-1880i 8 Port PCIe RAID card. However, usage with a SPARC Enterprise T5220 doesn't appear to work. Both kernel panics didn't provide a ddb prompt, so I was unable to do trace, ps, show registers. I
