plus.
If by "nicer" you mean that mfi does not integrate with CAM at all,
then you are
right :-)
Also, last I looked mfi has some pretty serious bugs in its direct
interface to
GEOM. We've seen all kinds of crashes with mfi at work.
Right that was what I meant.
Disadvantage is that mfiutil no longer works.
But then if you JBOD, it does not really matter.
Unless it still uses caching for JBODs and then I'd like to know the
state of the
battery.
Take a look from the ports storcli or MegaCli
You can do pretty well everything you need with those 2 tools to talk to
mrsas attached disks
eg
MegaCli -CfgEachDskRaid0 WT NORA Direct CachedBadBBU -Automatic -a0
or
storcli /c0 show all
storcli /c0 show help
storcli /c0 set jbod=on (enable jbod mode for drives)
storcli /c0/e252/s0 set jbod (sets a disk into jbod mode)
Great suggestion.
Seems storcli is a followup on MegaCli. So I just got the last one.
A bit of a pain, since PKG does not do it, but it also does not tell you
why.
But you need to manually fetch the tar from Broadcom first.
But then it works like a charm, actual upgrading whilest the system is
running of that controller:
root@quad-a:/usr/ports/sysutils/storcli # storcli /c0 download
file=/tmp/smc3108.rom
Download Completed.
