I have mentioned this before, my setup is an msa1500 controller with 2 of the msa(30?) SCSI shelves and two of the msa20 sata shelves. the sata shelves are ADG (i have also used raid5), one lun per shelf, 10 drives w/2 spares. My msa1500s and msa20s all have the most recent firmware and the qlogic card(isp0: ) with the ispfw module dynamically loaded. the issues are usually that drives and luns will just take themselves offline, mark disks bad, and pannic my freebsd box. the luns are invariably fine when brought back up, and after fsck can be used for random amount of time before this happens again. syslog shows occasional timeouts and resets. what i want is a tool or tools to help me test the setup from the freebsd box through to the san and help me pinpoint the problem area. does such a thing exist? thanks, Brad --------------------- Brad Miele IPNStock.com bmiele@ipnstock.com
