I've tested a box running two Marvell based 8-port controllers (which has been running great on Update 2) on the solaris Update 3 beta without issues. The specific card is the newer version of the SuperMicro board: http://www.supermicro.com/products/accessories/addon/AoC-SAT2 but have yet to test them under the released Update 3 code. I'll post a followup after the box is upgraded or re-installed. [I'm waiting for the next 48-hour day so that I can do the upgrade without affecting the user community!!] AFAIR the reported Marvell issues were with ON B54 - not Update 3. Or do I have this wrong? In any case, if you discover a bug with the Sun proprietary Marvell driver and Update 3 and you have a support contract, you can log a service request and get it fixed. Since the Marvell chipset is used in Thumper, I think its a pretty safe bet that the Marvell driver will continue to work very nicely (Thanks Lori). And yes, I would feel better if this driver was open sourced.... but that is Suns' decision to make. Regards, Al Hopper Logical Approach Inc, Plano, TX.
