How do you copy an alternate superblock on a SCSI hard drive to replace the main superblock? Mine got corrupted. I did this routine once before on an IDE drive and it worked great. But on SCSI, I understand less of how the drive works, so I don't know whether to use fsck or camcontrol or what. Any pointers to info on the web or FreeBSD site would be helpful too. I have read the manual material on SCSI drive related commands, but I am very confused. My drives are later model SCSI-160 types, with an Adaptec 29160 controller board. The drive is using UFS2 and UFS, as this is an AMD64 box, and I have a FreeBSD 5.3beta 32bit partition in there too. Cable is properly terminated and I'm using new low profile round SCSI cables. I don't know what I did to cause this. Thanks for anyone who can help.

You can feed fsck the -b 32 (or some other superblock) option to clean the filesystem using an alternate superblock. If possible, you want to try to do a SCSI "REASsign Block" command ("reasb") to use any available spare sectors to replace the bad one. It's possible that one of the following might be helpful: /usr/ports/sysutils/sformat /usr/ports/sysutils/smartmontools I suggest running a long self-test and checking the SMART status on the drive. Modern drives are supposed to reassign bad blocks themselves, so it is quite possible that your drive has already used up all of its spare sectors and is going to fail completely very soon. -- -Chuck From owner-freebsd-hardware@FreeBSD.ORG Tue Oct 5 07:50:45 2004 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id EE34416A4CF; Tue, 5 Oct 2004 07:50:45 +0000 (GMT) Received: from marlena.vvi.at (marlena.vvi.at [208.252.225.59]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id B22E743D5C; Tue, 5 Oct 2004 07:50:45 +0000 (GMT) (envelope-from www@marlena.vvi.at) Received: from marlena.vvi.at (localhost.marlena.vvi.at [127.0.0.1]) by marlena.vvi.at (8.12.10/8.12.9) with ESMTP id i9510ob8033878; Mon, 4 Oct 2004 18:00:51 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from www@marlena.vvi.at) Received: (from www@localhost) by marlena.vvi.at (8.12.10/8.12.10/Submit) id i9510oHE033877; Mon, 4 Oct 2004 18:00:50 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from www) Date: Mon, 4 Oct 2004 18:00:50 -0700 (PDT) Message-Id: <200410050100.i9510oHE033877@marlena.vvi.at> To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org From: "ALeine" cc: freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org Subject: Multifunction printer/scanner/copier recommendation needed X-BeenThere: freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: General discussion of FreeBSD hardware List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 05 Oct 2004 07:50:46 -0000 Hello, I'm shopping for a new printer and I want to get a multifunction printer/scanner/copier that is proven to work well under FreeBSD for both printing and scanning.

For infromation on supported printers, I suggest looking at http://www.linuxprinting.org/. Canons multifunction devices are not recommended. Not only do they not support Unix, they also don't support MacOS. HP actually provides linux support for their products. I haven't tried hooking my OfficeJet 6110 up to a BSD machine yet, but I think it should work. -- Brooks --=20 Any statement of the form "X is the one, true Y" is FALSE.

We just got an Canon imageRUNNER C3200 at work and have been severely disappointed by the color print speed. On average, it takes about two minutes to process each page. Our old Xerox Phaser 860N is much faster. On the other hand, it does have CUPS support and can scan to an ftp server (FreeBSD 5.2.1 here), and the scans (scan to PDF) are clear and compact. However, we mainly got it to do black and white copying and color printing, so the abysmal color print processing speed is problematic at best.

Besides, about 80 % of the Canon printers which are listed there have been marked to indicate that some information for those printers has not been verified. The suggested printers section also seems to be quite dated and, in that sense, misleading. IMHO, there are too many conflicting reviews to really trust any one such source, but I do tend to trust first-hand experience of users more than any other source.

No, I found a site that was explicit about it. I just can't seem to find it now. Somewhere there's a listing of multifunction devices.

We want to use this as our primary Database server, as RedHat Enterprise is not working well and Emulex seems to only offer drivers for RedHat Enterprise and SuSE Enterprise.

I've already read on the freebsd-hardware mailinglist that the problem of the HP Proliant ML110 integrated Broadcom 5705 chipset not recognized by the bge driver available in FreeBSD 4.10-RELEASE was already experienced. Could i update only the bge driver or should i update all the sourcecode by cvsup to 4.10-STABLE ? I've booted with a Linux liveCD and it shows with lspci : 04:04.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5705_2 Gigabit Ethernet (rev 03) lspci -s 4:4.0 -n 04:04.0 Class 0200: 14e4:1654 (rev 03) I hope this will help you to understand this problem. While waiting for another solution, i will try to update to 4.10-STABLE with the sources downloaded by cvsup. Good luck and thanks for your driver, Bertrand --------------090308050400060201090105-- From owner-freebsd-hardware@FreeBSD.ORG Fri Oct 8 17:07:17 2004 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id CB06716A4CF for ; Fri, 8 Oct 2004 17:07:17 +0000 (GMT) Received: from cobra.acceleratedweb.net (cobra-gw.acceleratedweb.net [207.99.79.37]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 2728D43D39 for ; Fri, 8 Oct 2004 17:07:17 +0000 (GMT) (envelope-from simon@optinet.com) Received: (qmail 86286 invoked by uid 110); 8 Oct 2004 17:07:16 -0000 Received: from ool-18baaf5c.dyn.optonline.net (HELO win2kpc1) (simon%optinet.com@24.186.175.92) by cobra.acceleratedweb.net with SMTP; 8 Oct 2004 17:07:16 -0000 From: "Simon" To: "freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org" Date: Fri, 08 Oct 2004 13:11:13 -0400 Priority: Normal X-Mailer: PMMail 2000 Professional (2.20.2661) For Windows 2000 (5.0.2195;4) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Message-Id: <20041008170717.2728D43D39@mx1.FreeBSD.org> Subject: Monitoring LSI MegaRAID 320-1 X-BeenThere: freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: General discussion of FreeBSD hardware List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Fri, 08 Oct 2004 17:07:17 -0000 Hello Folks! I have several servers with LSI MegaRAID 320-1 controllers. What do you all use to monitor the arrays? how is one supposed to know when a drive dies, remotely? I found a utility MegaControl which does exactly this, but it is buggy and causes my servers to malfunction and start panicing left and right. I noticed that the array would be reinitialized in background after installing MegaControl which made no sense since the array was already %100 initialized. This would of course corrupt the live system and was probably the cause of panics. Any insights on this would be appreciated!

(I've tested this on 320-2 and 320-0.) I'd use camcontrol rather than megacontrol, but bear in mind that, AFAIK, camcontrol cannot tell you the array status, only individual drive status. -Ketrien I.
