I'm guessing it has to be the drives, because A) I don't think the SAS expander portions of the SAS protocol are optional B) I have tried some extremely convoluted SAS expander configurations with OI and had them run "fine"*. I'd finger LSI as making any SAS things for Dell by default, as I know

Backplane drivers should be irrelevant. The expander should speak a common language. Not sure how to tap into things to confirm. I have tried lsi latest IR and IT firmwares with same results under OI and sol11. On Nov 30, 2011, at 23:25, Gary wrote: > I've found the ZFS discuss list a good so

Im sorry you got that idea, I totally agree with you.. But I came across this oracle Solaris 11 document that stated that expanders were not supported although I have used them in both the 7000 series (with the j series expanders) and using commodity expander shelves with commodity lsi based sas
