SCO OS 6 Driver for LSIL SAS1064E Raid Controller
Hi all,
A client has an SCO OpenServer Server 6.0, that is running on an HP ProLiant Box and they lost the root password.
Its equipped with a Doal-Core Intel Pentium Processor. They don't have any media or emergency disk anymore.
I tried to boot with the CD Rom, then "Tools", then exit to a shell, but I can't mount the HD or the RAID, because the root fs is on a LSI Logic Raid controller MPT SAS1064E.
I found an LSIL driver for SCO OS 5.0.7 that I can load at boot time, but this version does not support this SAS RAID controller card.
Is there a driver for OS Server 5.07 for this LSIL SAS1064E RAID controller?
Or, is there a driver for OS 6.0 or for another version for SAS1064E and where can I find a boot load driver disk?
(Since it is installed and running on that box, there must be a driver somewhere!)
What device will the root filesystem be available, mounted to? (On regular startup it is at /dev/rroot)
Any help appreciated,
Thomas.

MPS(4) BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual MPS(4)
NAME
mps -- LSI Fusion-MPT 2 Serial Attached SCSI driver
SYNOPSIS
To compile this driver into your kernel, place the following lines in your kernel configuration file:
device scbus
device mps
Or, to load the driver as a module at boot, place the following line in loader.conf(5):
mps_load="YES"
DESCRIPTION
The mps driver provides support for LSI Logic Fusion-MPT 2 SAS controllers and WarpDrive solid state storage cards.
HARDWARE
The mps driver supports the following hardware:
o LSI Logic SAS2004 (4 Port SAS)
o LSI Logic SAS2008 (8 Port SAS)
o LSI Logic SAS2108 (8 Port SAS)
o LSI Logic SAS2116 (16 Port SAS)
o LSI Logic SAS2208 (8 Port SAS)
o LSI Logic SAS2308 (8 Port SAS)
o LSI Logic SSS6200 Solid State Storage
o Intel Integrated RAID Module RMS25JB040
o Intel Integrated RAID Module RMS25JB080
o Intel Integrated RAID Module RMS25KB040
o Intel Integrated RAID Module RMS25KB080
CONFIGURATION
To disable MSI interrupts for all mps driver instances, set the following tunable value in loader.conf(5):
hw.mps.disable_msi=1
To disable MSI interrupts for a specific mps driver instance, set the following tunable value in loader.conf(5):
dev.mps.X.disable_msi=1
where X is the adapter number.
To disable MSI-X interrupts for all mps driver instances, set the following tunable value in loader.conf(5):
hw.mps.disable_msix=1
To disable MSI-X interrupts for a specific mps driver instance, set the following tunable value in loader.conf(5):
dev.mps.X.disable_msix=1
To set the maximum number of DMA chains allocated for all adapters, set the following variable in loader.conf(5):
hw.mps.max_chains=NNNN
To set the maximum number of DMA chains allocated for a specific adapter, set the following variable in loader.conf(5):
dev.mps.X.max_chains=NNNN
This variable may also be viewed via sysctl(8) to see the maximum set for a given adapter.
The current number of free chain frames may be seen via the dev.mps.X.chain_free sysctl(8) variable.
The lowest number of free chain frames may be seen via the dev.mps.X.chain_free_lowwater sysctl(8) variable.
The current number of active I/O commands is shown in the dev.mps.X.io_cmds_active sysctl(8) variable.
The maximum number of active I/O command seen since boot is shown in the dev.mps.X.io_cmds_highwater sysctl(8) variable.
DEBUGGING
To enable debugging prints from the mps driver, set the
hw.mps.X.debug_level
variable, where X is the adapter number, either in loader.conf(5) or via sysctl(8). The following bits have the described effects:
0x01 Enable informational prints.
0x02 Enable tracing prints.
0x04 Enable prints for driver faults.
0x08 Enable prints for controller events.

HISTORY
The mps driver first appeared in FreeBSD 9.0.
AUTHORS
The mps driver was originally written by Scott Long <scottl@FreeBSD.org>. It has been improved and tested by LSI Logic Corporation. This
man page was written by Ken Merry <ken@FreeBSD.org>.
BUGS
This driver has a couple of known shortcomings:
o No userland utility available (e.g. mptutil(8)).
o The driver probes devices sequentially. If your system has a large number of devices, the probe will take a while.
