I am using a SX6000 with 4 drives/RAID0+1 configuration on my FreeBSD 5.2-CURRENT box as of 2003/12/12 (not the boot disk, though). It should also be supported on 5.2-RELEASE. The dmesg says: |FreeBSD 5.2-CURRENT #0: Sat Dec 13 02:48:01 JST 2003 (snip) | pst0: <Promise SuperTrak RAID> on pstpci0 | GEOM: create disk pst0 dp=0xc299998c | pst0: 234603MB <PROMISE TECH. I2O RAID DEVICE> [29907/255/63] on pstpci0 | pstpci0: [MPSAFE] The hot swap (with SuperSwap) works fine and it is tolerant of relatively heavy load. However, it occasionally stops working and puts the following warnings: | Jan 29 22:56:50 kernel: pst: timeout mfa=0x0033cbf0 cmd=0x01 | Jan 29 22:57:00 kernel: pst: timeout mfa=0x0036d990 cmd=0x01 | Jan 29 22:57:10 kernel: pst: timeout mfa=0x0032e870 cmd=0x01 | Jan 29 22:57:20 kernel: pst: timeout mfa=0x003e99b0 cmd=0x01 I do not know the trigger, but it seems to occur once in two or three months. -- | Hiroki SATO ----Security_Multipart(Fri_Feb__6_01_41_27_2004_190)-- Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQBAInI3TyzT2CeTzy0RAtzSAKDFd85PQgE/tfk/78eWSrSr7B9ZmwCgg3dG CrwjzKuFX8MclyQvVZ09ln4= =QCxb -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ----Security_Multipart(Fri_Feb__6_01_41_27_2004_190)----
