I would also encourage you, and others on this list, to please contact your HPE rep and ensure they are aware of the need to support FreeBSD. I would also be very interested to learn more about your use case for FreeBSD if you're willing and able to share (publicly or privately). This would help me make the business case to HPE.

I'm looking to build a SAS array with a Dell MD1420. It will be attached via a SAS 9300-414E HBA in a Dell R330. I've verified that the server / SAS card should be fine, but just wanted to know if anybody has set this up before, or if there's any obvious reason why it wouldn't work. Dell can be a bit weird sometimes. Any information is most welcome.

This > would help me make the business case to HPE. Just to throw in here. I also have a Proliant DL360p but it's an older Gen8. My primary use for it is a zfs supported file server under FreeBSD 11.1 The Gen8 P420i controller causes heartache under FreeBSD. I finally gave up trying to get direct access to the disks and gave a raid5 virtual disk to zfs. And yes, getting it to boot was not easy either. It also made things difficult that I'm an individual who privately owns this, and have no HPE rep or support from them -- getting firmware upgrades (which was necessary to get it working) was very hard. (No one had _ever_ upgraded _any_ of the firmwares on it.) :( -Sam George > Best Regards, > > Scott Lamons > Program Manager > FreeBSD Foundation > scott@freebsdfoundation.org > > On Fri, Nov 10, 2017 at 5:23 AM, Scott Cooper > wrote: > >> Hi all, >> >> I’m attempting to install FreeBSD 11.1 (either –RELEASE or –STABLE) on an >> HP ProLiant DL360 Gen10 however it is not detecting the RAID controller >> which is a HPE Smart Array P408i-a… >> >> I can see that it isn’t included on https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/ >> man.cgi?query=ciss&sektion=4 however I was hopeful that maybe someone on >> this list might have some more experience with this newer generation HP kit >> and be able to help or if anyone is aware of this being worked on? >> >> Thanks in advance, >> >> Scott From owner-freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org Thu Nov 16 14:28:46 2017 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-hardware@mailman.ysv.freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:1900:2254:206a::19:1]) by mailman.ysv.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id E3057DDF257; Thu, 16 Nov 2017 14:28:46 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from ken@kdm.org) Received: from mithlond.kdm.org (mithlond.kdm.org [96.89.93.250]) (using TLSv1.2 with cipher ECDHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384 (256/256 bits)) (Client CN "A1-33714", Issuer "A1-33714" (not verified)) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTPS id 8D3837CA8B; Thu, 16 Nov 2017 14:28:46 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from ken@kdm.org) Received: from mithlond.kdm.org (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by mithlond.kdm.org (8.15.2/8.14.9) with ESMTPS id vAGEShhg025924 (version=TLSv1.2 cipher=DHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384 bits=256 verify=NO); Thu, 16 Nov 2017 09:28:43 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from ken@mithlond.kdm.org) Received: (from ken@localhost) by mithlond.kdm.org (8.15.2/8.14.9/Submit) id vAGEShxs025923; Thu, 16 Nov 2017 09:28:43 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from ken) Date: Thu, 16 Nov 2017 09:28:43 -0500 From: "Kenneth D.

I haven't used a Dell enclosure recently, but from posts here, it seems that they like to turn on Type 2 Protection Information on the drives. (Assuming you buy the drives from Dell.) If they do that, you can either reformat, or see the patch here for the mpr(4) driver to disable using protection information: https://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=308820+0+archive/2017/freebsd-scsi/20171022.freebsd-scsi I haven't gotten around to changing things so that we detect the PI in the da(4) driver and use 32 byte CDBs when type 2 protection is enabled. (So if someone else has time and wants to do it, feel free. It will be somewhat messy because we only allocate enough space for 16 byte CDBs inside the CCB, so you'll need to allocate the CDB separately...) If you use ZFS, you'll have checksum protection on your data anyway, so PI would just be additional protection. I would also suggest that you update to the latest firmware (currently Phase 15) for the SAS controller. You can do that with LSI's sas3flash or the FreeBSD mprutil(8) utility.

I had no idea about PI, that's a nice feature for sure. This will probably just be iSCSI and NFS4 over a 10Gb NIC (Xen cluster), so having PI detection is certainly of interest to me. I'll figure out what I can do to contribute (code/testing) when things have settled. Assuming all is well I'll get the 1420 added to the hardware compatibility list.

I'm not sure what your expectation was but the Smart Array hardware RAID controllers I've seen from HP are the same as IBM / Dell in the sense that the controller presents a logical disk to the host for all RAID configurations, RAID 0 or otherwise. Host access to a disk where the controller acts as just a HBA isn't possible. It's a purposeful design difference between a RAID controller and a HBA. - John J.
