I have used the whole range (or somewhat) for internal SA's. Starting with the internal one in DL380R1 and up to G4. Performance of 6i in freebsd is better than 5i, but worse than if you insert a external card (6402/6404). I mostly use the internal SA as systemdisk only on systems with a lot of disk IO. A single write is OK, but multiple rw's are not its best side. I had some performance data a year ago regarding the different setups, but Im afraid they are long gone now. I have not have any problems with a recover. But it takes time. 18GB ~15-20 mins on 5i. dunno on 6i... I have yet to get a failure on those servers. http://people.freebsd.org/~jcagle/ is available. But it screams to the console and logs when something occurs, so there are other options to report an error. /Bjorn On Mon, 27 Feb 2006, Steven Hartland wrote: > Has anyone had any dealings with the HP Smart Array 6i? > > Specifically looking for info on: > * Performance > * Disk failure recover > * Available tools for monitoring etc. > > Regards > Steve > > > ================================================ > This e.mail is private and confidential between Multiplay (UK) Ltd. and the person or entity to whom it is addressed.
