I recently setup a new FreeBSD 7.0 AMD64 server with an IBM ServeRAID-8k configured with a raid5 for data and raid1 for OS. I pulled out one of the raid5 drives to test the functionality and noticed that FreeBSD didn't seem to notice the disk failure at all. I was expecting kernel messages about it, but got nothing. This is a bit concerning because I don't look at the server physically every day and want to know ASAP if a drive fails. I tried setting options AAC_DEBUG=1 but that produces a lot of messages even during normal use so I'd rather not leave that on. Is this a bug in the driver, or simply missing functionality?
