I own a 1999 vintage HP Logic Analyzer that runs HPUX 10.20. It is a 9000/775/rock system similar to a Visualize C132L/160L system.
I'm attempting, mostly for the fun of it, to upgrade the existing slow 5MB/s-only SCSI system, with a new-er PCI card. Of course drivers is my major concern. I'd... (2 Replies)

PCI-X was popular years ago, now it's not. Today's motherboards have PCIe slots, not PCI-X slots. I'm accustomed to using Adaptec, but I believe they've been bought out by ATTO Technology.

I need to connect 80pin SCA Ultra320 SCSI hdd to 68pin.
There are rumors that some bad "passive" adapters with problematic termination can fry the HDD. The adapter we got is Assmann ABSCA-2. Hard drive is 'Fujitsu MAW3073NC'
Do we need to set any jumpers before turning it on?

Okay. I admit I'm sort of a newbie in this regard.
I installed a SCSI adapter on a Sun Ultra 5 workstation. I did the standard STOP-A on the startup and got the OK prompt. I then tried probe-scsi-all. It dumps me back @ the OK prompt w/ no message whatsoever. I tried probe-scsi, nothing.

Hi. I need to find a simple SCSI adapter card for a Sun Ultra 5 workstation. I don't need the type w/ ethernet attached (e.g. X1032) as I already have ethernet onboard & they are more spendy.

NAME
arcmsr -- Areca Technology Corporation SATA/SAS RAID controller
SYNOPSIS
arcmsr* at pci? dev ? function ?
DESCRIPTION
The arcmsr driver provides support for the PCI-X and PCI Express RAID controllers from Areca Technology Corporation:
- ARC-1110 PCI-X 4 Port SATA RAID Controller
- ARC-1110ML PCI-X 4 Port SATA RAID Controller
- ARC-1120 PCI-X 8 Port SATA RAID Controller
- ARC-1120ML PCI-X 8 Port SATA RAID Controller
- ARC-1130 PCI-X 12 Port SATA RAID Controller
- ARC-1130ML PCI-X 12 Port SATA RAID Controller
- ARC-1160 PCI-X 16 Port SATA RAID Controller
- ARC-1160ML PCI-X 16 Port SATA RAID Controller
- ARC-1170 PCI-X 24 Port SATA RAID Controller
- ARC-1200 Rev A PCI Express 2 Port SATA RAID Controller
- ARC-1202 PCI Express 2 Port SATA RAID Controller
- ARC-1210 PCI Express 4 Port SATA RAID Controller
- ARC-1220 PCI Express 8 Port SATA RAID Controller

- ARC-1680 PCI Express 8 Port SAS RAID Controller
- ARC-1680LP PCI Express 8 Port SAS RAID Controller
- ARC-1680i PCI Express 8 Port SAS RAID Controller
- ARC-1680x PCI Express 8 Port SAS RAID Controller
- ARC-1681 PCI-X 8 Port SAS RAID Controller
These controllers support RAID levels 0, 1, 1E, 3, 5, 6, and JBOD using either SAS or SATA II drives.
arcmsr supports management and monitoring of the controller through the bioctl(8) and envstat(8) commands.
Please note, however, that to use some features that require special privileges, such as creating/removing hot-spares, pass-through disks or
RAID volumes will require to have the password disabled in the firmware; otherwise a Permission denied error will be reported by bioctl(8).
When a RAID 1 or 1+0 volume is created, either through the bioctl(8) command or controller's firmware, the volume won't be accessible until
the initialization is done. A way to get access to the sd(4) device that corresponds to that volume without rebooting, is to issue the fol-
lowing command (once the initialization is finished):
$ scsictl scsibus0 scan any any
The arcmsr driver will also report to the kernel log buffer any error that might appear when handling firmware commands, such as used by the
bioctl(8) command.
EVENTS
The arcmsr driver is able to send events to powerd(8) if a volume or any drive connected to the volume is not online. The state-changed
event will be sent to the /etc/powerd/scripts/sensor_drive script when such condition happens.
