Hello, I am using 3.0-stable with a DPT SmartRAID IV controller. According to the FAQs, newsgroups and mailing list searches and brief code studies, the situation is as follows: - Regular operation works fine. dpt_scsi.c was ported to CAM. The version in the FreeBSD source tree is the most up-to-date compared to those on ftp.simon-shapiro.org. - The /dev/dpt0 control interface, defined in dpt_control.c, is not yet ported to CAM. So there is currently no way to remotely query even the failure state of the disks from within FreeBSD. Is this true? If yes, is there a timeframe when dpt_control.c will be ported to CAM? I did some dirty hacking myself which made it partly work. In particular, the dpt_* utilities for for most parameters. However, the DPT supplied binaries fail alltogether: bash-2.02# ./dptsig /dev/dpt0 DPT File Information Utility - Version 001.D6 /dev/dpt0 - No DPT signature found. bash-2.02# ./dptsnap /dev/dpt0 DPTSNAP Utility - Version 1.A6 Bad system call (core dumped) bash-2.02# ./dpteng While syslog reports: Jan 31 21:17:34 s1 /kernel: cmd dpteng pid 691 tried to use non-present SYSVMSG TIA, Robert -- Robert Kiessling easynet DV GmbH Hotline: 0130/126808 Technik Naegelsbachstr. 26 Tel.:+49 9131 8967 0 robert@easynet.de D-91052 Erlangen Fax: +49 9131 8967 8 -----------------------------------------> URL: http://www.easynet.de/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-scsi" in the body of the message
