Let me go to DC and open server, will try to figure it
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Removing card and messing with connections and MB was not agreed with management and they said to go with RAID 1 for rpool and RAID 5 for application/db filesystems.
Do we have any tools/utility, which can be managed from OS level and we can check status/configuration from there ?
All I can see is below, but it is not giving much details :-

Search for "sun storagetek common array manager" (for Solaris).

Okay, I'm now on my workstation so here's the detail..........
The raidctl command shows that you have an integrated LSI 1068E raid controller on your motherboard. That is what you would connect to if you pull out the Storagetek. The LSI supports RAID0, RAID1, and RAID1E. So it can't do RAID5.
Sun (Oracle) OEM'd the LSI 1068E chipset and the Storagetek RAID add-in card and you have BOTH of them.
The LSI is configured and controlled with the 'raidctl' command from Solaris but, again, you would need to configure any raid array to be used for the root filesystem by booting from DVD into single user. Then, the 'disk' is visible from the OS install routine.
For the Storagetek you need the package I told you to search for above which doesn't use raidctl (that's for the LSI) so don't get confused.
The Storagetek package you need to manage from Solaris may well also be on the CD that DN2 told you to download and burn. I'm not sure.
Hope that helps.

YES to all questions.
Sun Storagetek Common Array Manager is downloaded (from Installing the Typical Full Management Software ) and installed, which was installed successfully. But when I am issuing /opt/SUNWstkcam/bin/sscs, I am seeing these errors.
The first thing that hits me is that the package you've installed is "Sun storage common array manager" which doesn't mention "Storagetek" which is the RAID controller manufacturer.
I was expecting "Sun Storagetek Common Array Manager" and I wonder whether they are the same thing.
I need to go and check that out.

I also note that you are installing Solaris 11. We need to confirm that the Storagetek monitoring suite is supported under Solaris 11.

Looks like "Sun storage common array manager" is indeed the Storagetek product.
I can't find anywhere that says it doesn't work on Solaris 11.

We used kstat on netra240/440 to check if the link is full duplex. So we do something like:
bash-3.00# kstat -pc net bge:1::/'link_duplex'/ | cut -f2

The output 2 indicates the link is full duplex. This kind of check worked all right for Netra 240/440 systems.
However, the nxge... (2 Replies)
