I installed the new driver as described in the README and disabled the old one. The boot went through perfect (no error messages concerning the enclosure any more). Then I removed one drive and the spare was rebuilt. Later I re-inserted the first drive and removed the spare. The rebuild also went through. I got many messages during the rebuilt, sorry for not being able to reproduce them exactly but they did not appear in syslog. There were several concerning IO-Problems and things like that, I could no longer access the machine. there seems to be big trouble when accessing the array after the rebuild. Finally I rebooted the machine and the syncing before the halt failed. While rebooting the mylex-bios did not report any problems, the two system drives and the spare disk were all online. Freebsd made an fsck (yes, I booted a different kernel) but did not report problems. It might be possible that the error-messages were the result from the driver trying to write to syslog - I have no Idea why else all the messages that appered on the screen were not in syslog. /ch To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-scsi" in the body of the message
