Operating Systems Solaris Where are my other disks on T5220 ? Post 302987840 by hicksd8 on Friday 16th of December 2016 01:31:11 PM

Okay, some of what I'm about to say I'm guessing....please note that....

Is the Storagetek controller an add-in card? Or is it built into the motherboard?

If it's add-in you might be able to pull out the card and connect the ribbon cables from the disks to the motherboard. I'm really not sure. Anybody know amongst all the Sun experts on here?

Otherwise, there may be a "pass-through" option on the STK Manager to simply map raw disks (without RAID) to Solaris. That needs investigation unless another member with better knowledge of STK than me chips in.

This:

https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19637-01.../E23172-01.pdf

seems to say it's an add-in card.

the (default) drives are SAS drives.

It looks like if you don't want RAID (other than RAID0 or RAID1 which the motherboard provides according to this pdf), just pull the card out. (Don't throw it away because it's worth money!!!)

It would still be better to do a pass-through of drives from the STK if that's possible.
