VJ -- Hello Guys I am in a situation here. I am running couple of Dell 2950 Servers with FreeBSD 7.0 amd. There seemed to be a problem related to RAID controller on one server. From Dell support, I was told to download a troubleshooting tool called DSET. ( http://support.dell.com/support/topics/global.aspx/support/en/dell_system_tool?c=us&l=en&s=gen) But that is for Linux distributions. So, I am just in middle of no where :( Could you guys guide me that how to install and run this tool on my server in order to diagnose problem? -- Thanks! BR / vj ------------------------------ This question should have gone to -hardware or -stable. It depends on what RAID controller is installed in the box, and what problem you're actually having ("There seemed to be a problem with the RAID controller" tells us nothing). I believe others have some experience with PERC controllers, but as I said, we don't know what hardware you have. -- | Jeremy Chadwick jdc at parodius.com | | Parodius Networking http://www.parodius.com/ | | UNIX Systems Administrator Mountain View, CA, USA | | Making life hard for others since 1977.
