Server is a Dell 2450 w/ PERC3/Si controller. There are 4 Drives in RAID 5 and they are recognized. Controller has been updated to version 2.8 build 6092 firmware. The 4 hard drives are on channels 0-3 and seen by bios and FreeBSD as a RAID 5 container. DAT drive is a Seagate STD2401LW (now certance http://www.certance.com/products/dds-dat/dds-4/STD2401LW-S) DAT is set with default jumpers (channel 6, parity on, termination power off), switches are all on. I also tried with switch 10 off ((Inquiry String Switch (Switch 10) Switch 10 is used to select the Vendor ID that the drive returns when queried with a SCSI Inquiry command. When switch 10 is ON (the default setting), the Vendor ID is "SEAGATE DAT." When switch 10 is OFF the Vendor ID is "ARCHIVE Python." The "ARCHIVE Python" Vendor ID may be used by independent software vendors to provide software compatibility with previous Seagate DDS tape drives.) The manual says that switches 5-8 are on for Linux. Drive had be reported to work under RH 7.2 but I did not see that with my own eyes. DAT Drive is recognized by the PERC bios at channel 6 with both of the above strings from switch 10 positions. Kernel is default GENERIC 5.3 and appears to have scbus, pass, and sa drivers compiled in as per /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/GENERIC Camcontrol devlist does not return anything. What do I need to do to get the kernel to recognize the drive? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Paul Output of Dmesg ------- Copyright (c) 1992-2004 The FreeBSD Project.

On attaching it, FreeBSD claims it is only ~1TB in size. I have tried (in no particular order): rebooting, changing the SCSI card geometry munging option (does this do anything??), creating a partition using fdisk and gpt which covered the entirety of the disk, all to no = avail. To my na=EFve eyes it seems the mpt driver is not aware of "extended translation" however I cannot see where to fix this in the driver, or = have any confidence in this guess! Can someone tell me where to look next?

Basically your device is telling us that it is only 1TB or so in size. You need to tweak the device configuration to report the entire array size, if it can. Otherwise, it may be able to report multiple 1TB LUNs, and that may be how you'll have to use it. Hopefully the documentation will explain things. In order for us to recognize that the device is greater than 2TB in size, it has to report a size of 0xffffffff for a standard READ CAPACITY(10) command, and then we send the 16 byte version of the command to get the true capacity. The device isn't reporting a size anywhere close to 2TB, so it's likely just a configuration problem with the array.

I found this link http://www.svbug.com/cgi-bin/man.cgi?comd=8+boot , but creating file /boot.config with text "1:da(0,a)" doesn't help me. ================================================================= Sorry, this theme is off-topic of ISP maillist, but ISP admins often use SCSI disks on servers. May be anybody help me? Thank you. __________ www.newmail.ru -- узел свободных коммуникаций.

You have no access to any of the drives itself so far. In aac(4) manpage: Access to RAID containers is available via the /dev/aacd? device nodes. The aacp device enables the SCSI pass-thru interface and allows devices connected to the card such as cdroms to be available via the CAM scsi(4) subsystem. Note that not all cards allow this interface to be enabled. -- B.Walter BWCT http://www.bwct.de bernd@bwct.de info@bwct.de From owner-freebsd-scsi@FreeBSD.ORG Fri Nov 12 15:16:14 2004 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-scsi@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id B1DC716A4CE for ; Fri, 12 Nov 2004 15:16:14 +0000 (GMT) Received: from rwcrmhc13.comcast.net (rwcrmhc13.comcast.net [204.127.198.39]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 61E7143D49 for ; Fri, 12 Nov 2004 15:16:12 +0000 (GMT) (envelope-from pgrunwald@comcast.net) Received: from silversurfer (pcp01879374pcs.sandia01.nm.comcast.net[68.35.34.187]) by comcast.net (rwcrmhc13) with SMTP id <2004111215161101500cuk8oe>; Fri, 12 Nov 2004 15:16:11 +0000 From: "Paul Grunwald" To: Date: Fri, 12 Nov 2004 08:17:31 -0700 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Mailer: Microsoft Office Outlook, Build 11.0.6353 In-reply-to: <20041112095502.GL772@cicely12.cicely.de> X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V6.00.2900.2180 Thread-Index: AcTIncfB5XVpfuT3TQCvG6Zv+ivM2wALEj/g Message-Id: <20041112151612.61E7143D49@mx1.FreeBSD.org> Subject: RE: Tape on Dell 2450, changes with no luck X-BeenThere: freebsd-scsi@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: SCSI subsystem List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Fri, 12 Nov 2004 15:16:14 -0000 > > I'm still not seeing the drive under 5.3 GENERIC. > > > > What else can I try to diagnose the problem? > > Read at least the documentation! > > > Can someone who has this working tell me what their switch and jumper > settings are set to? > > Currently you are only seeing the raid container. > You have no access to any of the drives itself so far. > > In aac(4) manpage: > Access to RAID containers is available via the /dev/aacd? device > nodes. > The aacp device enables the SCSI pass-thru interface and allows > devices > connected to the card such as cdroms to be available via the CAM > scsi(4) > subsystem.

Since this is my driver and I'm very familiar with the 2450, the 7899, and scsi in general, can I ask a few questions? First, it's not clear from your previous emails that the tape drive in on a different channel from the disk drives. There might be confusion here because you kept on refering to the target id of each device as a 'channel', whereas it's normal to refer to each cable as a channel that contains up to 15 targets. The boot BIOS should show both a PERC banner and a 7899/Ultra160 banner. If the tape drive is on the second channel then it should show up under the 7899 banner, not the PERC banner. If your system only has a single cable/channel servicing the entire backplane, then I guess that you have no choice but to have the tape on the same channel as the raid disks, but again I need more details here. And if that's the case, then we might need to hack the aacp driver a bit to make it work. The only exception to what I said earlier would be if you are using the 'latest and greatest' PERC BIOS, which is rumored to commandeer the second SCSI channel and forces all SCSI to go through the RAID device. If this is the case, then I'd like to see if it would be possible to get remote access to this machine so I can investigate further.

This is unfortunate, and explains why no 7899 banner gets displayed unless you are in SCSI/SCSI mode. The second SCSI channel is now a virtual SCSI channel serviced by the RAID controller. You cannot create arrays on it, but all drive access must go through the RAID driver now instead of the SCSI driver. What this means for FreeBSD is that the aacp driver is now the only access mechanism available for the second channel. These BIOS changes were prompted by a Windows compatibility problem. If you're not running Windows then I would suggest trying to locate a prior bios, either in the 2.6 or 2.7 lineage. If that's not possible then we'll have to hack the aac and aacp drivers to work. I don't like doing this because the RAID firmware really doesn't handle SCSI pass-through very well, and often times gets very upset by some of the things that the FreeBSD SCSI layer tries to do. If you want to follow Dell's tech support path, that's you're choice, but I believe that the BIOS and firmware is operating as designed now. I'll get ahold of my contacts at Adaptec and confirm this.
