Actually, in F/W. It is conceivable that somebody could use a QLA card

The drivers/fc4 tree currently works only on SPARCs, as the only low-level
drivers written are soc and socal (both SBUS adapters), but I've been trying
to separate card specific code from pr

For SSA (that's point-to-point, not AL), I used fc4, soc, pluto
for A5000 (and other FCAL disks), I used fc4, socal, fcal

I'm assuming these were done on SparcLinux, or are the FC/FCAL interfaces
available on X86 also?

What did you use for the FCAL interface?

Apparently the A5000 has been replaced by the A5100 due to "issues" with
the 5000
Don't know what that means though.
Anyway, I don't want disksuite for linux, I would much rather see the
Linux RAID tools developing as they have been.. It has even been
commented recently that the ra

Yep, I'm using full SSA (29 disks) with Linux, raid0 for more

Yes, I've done so.
Hmm...Disksuite for Linux...wonder if Sun has thought of that?
Has anyone tried hanging a Sun SSA or A5000 off of a Linux
box using raidtools? It seems like Sun *has* thought of
this one...this came from someone at Sun:
