I am working with some folks on this list on a ZFS problem where I am using LSI 9211-8i boards flashed to IT, which use the LSI SAS2008 chips (I own about ten of these boards). I have used various versions of BIOS and firmware from LSI in these boards and presently using LSI's most recent. The 2008 chips are listed as supported in the driver and I have also used Supermicro boards with these chips. mps0: <LSI SAS2008> port 0xc000-0xc0ff mem 0xfe93c000-0xfe93ffff,0xfe940000-0xfe97ffff irq 32 at device 0.0 on pci3 mps0: Firmware: 14.00.00.00, Driver: 14.00.00.01-fbsd mps0: IOCCapabilities: 1285c<ScsiTaskFull,DiagTrace,SnapBuf,EEDP,TransRetry,EventReplay,HostDisc> In the debugging process the question arose related to chip revisions, firmware revisions, and folks general opinion about the 9211-8i /or/ recommendation of something better for a ZFS HBA. We /do not/ know if the problem experienced is this board/chip/firmware, rather we're simply asking questions about them. Opinions? Experiences?
