About the NIC I think I will not have so high load (I never reached 100k states even on very high network load). About the RAID controller i found this thread: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2007-January/140790.ht= ml I suppose that ml115 and ml110 have the same raid controller, maybe different from the ML350, DL360(G4p) and DL380(G4) you mentioned.

With regards to the raid controllers, the DL360 and DL380 use the Compaq SmartArray 64xx series, and they use the ciss driver. We haven't had any problems with these, either with FreeBSD or OpenBSD. I don't know what the ML115/110 use though, you'd just have to ask HP I suppose. brgrds Oystein Kaldhol BOFH-in training County of More & Romsdal Norway From owner-freebsd-proliant@FreeBSD.ORG Thu May 3 12:02:38 2007 Return-Path: X-Original-To: freebsd-proliant@freebsd.org Delivered-To: freebsd-proliant@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [69.147.83.52]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 3924016A40A for ; Thu, 3 May 2007 12:02:38 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from edwin@mavetju.org) Received: from mail4out.barnet.com.au (mail4.barnet.com.au [202.83.178.125]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id EB2EE13C48A for ; Thu, 3 May 2007 12:02:37 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from edwin@mavetju.org) Received: by mail4out.barnet.com.au (Postfix, from userid 1001) id DDF8337D313; Thu, 3 May 2007 21:44:12 +1000 (EST) X-Viruscan-Id: <4639CB0C0000F8A1157595@BarNet> Received: from mail4auth.barnet.com.au (mail4.barnet.com.au [202.83.178.125]) (using TLSv1 with cipher DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA (256/256 bits)) (Client did not present a certificate) by mail4.barnet.com.au (Postfix) with ESMTP id B11D9426CE7; Thu, 3 May 2007 21:44:12 +1000 (EST) Received: from k7.mavetju (k7.mavetju.org [10.251.1.18]) by mail4auth.barnet.com.au (Postfix) with ESMTP id 75E1137D172; Thu, 3 May 2007 21:44:12 +1000 (EST) Received: by k7.mavetju (Postfix, from userid 1001) id 479D9198; Thu, 3 May 2007 21:44:12 +1000 (EST) Date: Thu, 3 May 2007 21:44:12 +1000 From: Edwin Groothuis To: ?ystein Kaldhol Message-ID: <20070503114412.GE1237@k7.mavetju> References: <9a2d73850704160709j2ec7fd46iecbd84ba6f7c3d0@mail.gmail.com> <9a2d73850705020232mcd02c76s8ec15875562aa902@mail.gmail.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline In-Reply-To: User-Agent: Mutt/1.4.2.2i Cc: freebsd-proliant@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Ad: Re: Ad: Proliant ML115 compatible?

Is there a non-destructive way to resize disks?

List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Fri, 04 May 2007 15:40:35 -0000 Hi, I have a HP DL320 (G5, IIRC - Woodcrest Xeon) with two 80 GB SATA disks that seem to hang on the built-in Intel SATA "F-RAID" (Fake-RAID) Controller (ICH7, MatrixRAID). My question is: how can I install on that RAID? I enabled the Controller in the F9-BIOS, I created a RAID in the F8 RAID-BIOS and it shows up during boot. But when I want to install FreeBSD, it only detects ad4 and ad6 - and upon reboot, the controller doesn't see the RAID anymore, either - it reports the two disks as JBOD. I tried 6.2 and both the latest snapshots from ftp.freebsd.org/snapshots/ for 6-STABLE and CURRENT (for i386). The idea I got from reading the various posting etc. was that the OS should see an "ar0" device and I should be able to see that - but I don't. Can anyone offer some insight?
