I'm trying to use the Dell/Redhat CLI to manage a pair of mirrored disks in 
a Dell PowerEdge 2650 but I get:

FASTCMD> open afa0
Executing: open "afa0"
Command Error: <The driver could not execute the requested IOCTL 
SENDFIB,  22=Invalid argument.>

I have "options AAC_COMPAT_LINUX" in the kernel config and dmesg shows:

aac0: <Dell PERC 3/Di> mem 0xf0000000-0xf7ffffff irq 16 at device 8.1 on pci4
aac0: i960RX 100MHz, 118MB cache memory, optional battery present
aac0: Kernel 2.7-1, Build 3170, S/N 6841d3
aac0: Supported 
Options=75c<WCACHE,DATA64,HOSTTIME,WINDOW4GB,SOFTERR,NORECOND,SGMAP64>

  [ .. ]

aacd0: <RAID 1 (Mirror)> on aac0
aacd0: 34712MB (71091456 sectors)
Mounting root from ufs:/dev/aacd0s2a

  .. but it also shows:

linux: 'ioctl' fd=4, cmd=0x2008 (' ',8) not implemented

The more recent version (contained in afaapps-2.7-1.i386.rpm) has an 
unresolvable dependency on libartsc.so.0 which doesn't appear in any 
linux_base port :-(

Any hints as to how to get this to fly?
