I have recently been asked to attach a ~5TB external raid array to a = FreeBSD machine. 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? Thanks Henry Details follow: OS: FreeBSD 5.3-RC2 The relevant hardware specs: Raid array: Transtec 6100 with 16 400GB SATA drives and SCSI-3 output see: http://www.transtec.co.uk/GB/E/products/diskstorage/transtecPremiumRAIDs/= tra nstec6100SATA-RAID.html Raid array config: I have created a single Raid-5 SCSI card: LSI Logic LSI21320-R 64-bit PCI-X Ultra320 SCSI Dual-Channel Host Bus Adapter http://www.lsilogic.com/products/ultra320_host_bus_adapters/lsi21320.html= Snippets from relevant commands: # dmesg ... mpt1: <LSILogic 1030 Ultra4 Adapter> port 0xe400-0xe4ff mem 0xfeb80000-0xfeb9ffff,0xfeba0000-0xfebbffff irq 25 at device 1.1 on pci1 ... da0 at mpt1 bus 0 target 0 lun 0 da0: <transtec T6100S16R1 334B> Fixed Direct Access SCSI-3 device=20 da0: 320.000MB/s transfers (160.000MHz, offset 127, 16bit), Tagged = Queueing Enabled da0: 1143799MB (2342500352 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 145813C) ... # camcontrol devlist -v ... scbus1 on mpt1 bus 0: <transtec T6100S16R1 334B> at scbus1 target 0 lun 0 (pass2,da0) < > at scbus1 target -1 lun -1 () ...
