I have a new Dell server with a typical Dell hardware RAID. pciconf identifies it as "MegaRAID SAS-3 3008 [Fury]"; mfiutil reports: mfi0 Adapter: Product Name: PERC H330 Adapter Serial Number: 5AT00PI Firmware: 25.3.0.0016 RAID Levels: Battery Backup: not present NVRAM: 32K Onboard Memory: 0M Minimum Stripe: 64K Maximum Stripe: 64K Since I'm running ZFS I have the RAID functions disabled and the drives are presented as "system physical drives" ("mfisyspd[0-3]" when using mfi(4)). I wanted to use mrsas(4) instead, so that I could have direct access to the drives' SMART functions, and this seemed to work after I set the hw.mfi.mrsas_enable tunable, with one major exception: all drive access would hang after about 12 hours and the machine would require a hard reset to come back up. Has anyone seen this before? The driver in head doesn't appear to be any newer. -GAWollman
