You need MOS access and a valid service contract with Oracle. Then you can download the CAM software which comes with all the FW for all supported storages.

We're moving our production 3510FC to development, so we need to replace the production 3510FC. The 6140 is nice, but pricey.
Here's the question: Would two 2540's (RAID 10) be 'faster' than one 3510? (RAID 10) and faster than one 6140 (RAID 10)?

I have 3 arrays right now. (2) 2540's.. let's call them 2540A and 2540B and (1) 6140. 2540A and the 6140 are configured and mounted on the same linux host.

Hi Guys and Gals,
Wionder if you could help me, got a problem with a controller on a storagetek 2540, dead when fully powered up but if you reboot, it is ok for a couple of seconds (and you can ping it). Then once the array is fully up, it goes faulty and is un-pingable.

CISS(4) BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual CISS(4)
NAME
ciss -- Common Interface for SCSI-3 Support driver
SYNOPSIS
To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in your kernel configuration file:
device scbus
device ciss
Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in loader.conf(5):
ciss_load="YES"
DESCRIPTION
The ciss driver claims to provide a common interface between generic SCSI transports and intelligent host adapters.
The ciss driver supports CISS as defined in the document entitled CISS Command Interface for SCSI-3 Support Open Specification, Version 1.04,
Valence Number 1, dated 2000/11/27, produced by Compaq Computer Corporation.
We provide a shim layer between the ciss interface and CAM(4), offloading most of the queueing and being-a-disk chores onto CAM. Entry to
the driver is via the PCI bus attachment ciss_probe(), ciss_attach(), etc. and via the CAM interface ciss_cam_action(), and ciss_cam_poll().
The Compaq ciss adapters require faked responses to get reasonable behavior out of them. In addition, the ciss command set is by no means
adequate to support the functionality of a RAID controller, and thus the supported Compaq adapters utilize portions of the control protocol
from earlier Compaq adapter families.
Currently ciss only supports the ``simple'' transport layer over PCI. This interface (ab)uses the I2O register set (specifically the post
queues) to exchange commands with the adapter. Other interfaces are available, but we are not supposed to know about them, and it is dubious
whether they would provide major performance improvements except under extreme load.
Non-disk devices (such as internal DATs and devices attached to the external SCSI bus) are supported as normal CAM devices provided that they
are exported by the controller firmware and are not marked as being masked. Masked devices can be exposed by setting the
hw.ciss.expose_hidden_physical tunable to non-zero at boot time. Direct Access devices (such as disk drives) are only exposed as pass(4)
devices. Hot-insertion and removal of devices is supported but a bus rescan might be necessary.
The problem which adapter freezes with the message ``ADAPTER HEARTBEAT FAILED'' might be solved by updating the firmware and/or setting the
hw.ciss.nop_message_heartbeat tunable to non-zero at boot time.
