NAME
arcmsr -- Areca RAID Controller driver
SYNOPSIS
To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in your kernel configuration file: device pci device scbus device da device arcmsr Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in loader.conf(5): arcmsr_load="YES"
DESCRIPTION
The arcmsr driver provides support for the Areca ARC-11xx, ARC-12xx, ARC-13xx, ARC-16xx and ARC-18xx series of SAS and SATA RAID controllers. These controllers feature RAID-0, 1, 3, 5, 6, and 10 and JBOD acceleration for up to 16 SATA drives. RAID level and stripe level migration, online capacity expansion, hot insertion/removal, automatic failover and rebuild, and SMART are also supported. Access to the arrays is pro- vided via the SCSI CAM /dev/da? device nodes. A management interface is also present via the /dev/arcmsr? device node. Management tools for i386 and amd64 are available from Areca.
HARDWARE
The arcmsr driver supports the following cards: o ARC-1110 o ARC-1120 o ARC-1130 o ARC-1160 o ARC-1170 o ARC-1110ML o ARC-1120ML o ARC-1130ML o ARC-1160ML o ARC-1200 o ARC-1201 o ARC-1210 o ARC-1212 o ARC-1213 o ARC-1214 o ARC-1220 o ARC-1222 o ARC-1223 o ARC-1224 o ARC-1230 o ARC-1231 o ARC-1260 o ARC-1261 o ARC-1270 o ARC-1280 o ARC-1210ML o ARC-1220ML o ARC-1231ML o ARC-1261ML o ARC-1280ML o ARC-1380 o ARC-1381 o ARC-1680 o ARC-1681 o ARC-1880 o ARC-1882 o ARC-1883
