Mike and I discovered that the CAM sim was being frozen but never being unfrozen. Can you try this patch? I still have not put this into FreeBSD because of other weirdness I am seeing on my DL380g2, but I am unable to reproduce the same problems w/ my DL360g2, so I'm going to put another DL380g2 in the rack on monday and see if it suffers from the lockups I am seeing or if that machine's array is just jacked.
