Hi,
I have a root with hardware RAID on c0t0d0 and c0t2d0. I would like to set the boot device sequence in OBP for both hdds.
I have checked in ls -l /dev/rdsk/ for the path of c0t2d0 but it does not exist. Can anyone shed some lights on this?

Hi everyone
I've just purchased a Sun T5120 server with 2 internal disks. I've configured hardware RAID (mirror) and as a result the device tree in Solaris only contains 1 hard drive.
My question is, how would I know when one of the drives become faulty?
Thanks (2 Replies)

Hi all
I've just received my T3-1. It has 8 disks and I would like to configure RAID1 on the disks. The Sun documentation states that you can either use the OpenBoot PROMP utility called Fcode or you can use software via the Solaris OS.
The documentation doesn't make it clear if:

Plan to use software raid (veritas volume mgr) on c1t2d0 disk.
After format and label the disk, still not able to detect using vxdiskadm.
Question:
Should I remove the hardware raid on c1t2d0 first?

mpii
MPII(4) BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual MPII(4)NAME
mpii -- LSI Logic Fusion-MPT Message Passing Interface II
SYNOPSIS
mpii* at pci? dev ? function ?
DESCRIPTION
The mpii driver provides support for storage controllers using the LSI Logic Fusion-MPT Message Passing Interface II family of chipsets:
- LSISAS2004, LSISAS2008
These chipsets can be found on the following controllers:
- Dell PERC H200
- LSI SAS 9200-8e, SAS 9211-4i, SAS 9211-8i
Some models of these controllers have varying degrees of support for RAID 0 and RAID 1.
mpii supports monitoring of the logical disks in the controller through the bioctl(8) and envstat(8) commands.
EVENTS
The mpii driver is able to send events to powerd(8) if a logical drive in the controller is not online. The state-changed event will be sent
to the /etc/powerd/scripts/sensor_drive script when such condition happens.
SEE ALSO intro(4), pci(4), scsi(4), sd(4), bioctl(8), envstat(8), powerd(8)HISTORY
The mpii driver first appeared in OpenBSD 4.7.
AUTHORS
The mpii driver was written by James Giannoules and Mike Belopuhov.
BUGS
The chips supported by mpii do not use a SCSI-like identifier. Instead they use an opaque ID and leave discovery order up to the operating
system. The code to handle this is currently not implemented and therefore it is not a good idea to run this driver on a multi-boot machine
or with more than 1 drive.
