Recently I have the opportunity to use LSI 9211-8i in my HP DL380 G6 server. After flashing LSI with the latest IR firmware (v19.0.0.0), I just disabled the internal smart array raid device and connected two backplane SAS cables to LSI ports. Everything was as expected. LSI lists all of the disks which are 6 HP SAS drives and a Intel DCS3700 SSD.
I use latest smartos release. Booting in to "noinstall" mode, I had "WARNING: KCS error: ff”. As I investigate it has to do with bmc. “diskinfo” showed the disks as below. All seems to be fine. So I made 6 drive RAIDZ zfs pool (named zones) and rebooted the server. Smartos initial setup appeared, answered all of the questions, rebooted and met the usual login prompt. There was nothing unusual except KCS warning. Later I figured out that I forgot the attach Intel SSD as log & cache vdev. Slicing with fdisk, I attached Intel SSD as cache and log vdev. Nothing unusual... Once more I decided to reboot server. This time I met the initial smartos setup screen again. I guessed it had something to do with pool import so rebooted in “noinstall” mode to see pool state. "zpool import" had the following error. It seems like something doesn't like Intel SSD. Any advice to dig further would be appreciated.
