Hi all,
I'm having an issue getting my installation of FreeBSD to detect all
the drives in the system. It has 48 total, 46 2TB, and 2 250GB. The
system consists of six controllers, with eight drives on each. The two
250GB hard drives are the first drives on controllers 0 and 1.
There are two of these machines with the exact same configurations,
having the same problem. A very odd thing is that every time the
systems are rebooted, the drives that go undetected vary. Also, when
the systems were full of 250GB drives, all were detected. All drives
are detected in the BIOS of the controllers, just not by FreeBSD.
Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
(output of dmesg attached)
When I had that problem (although on a much simpler machine), the
problem turned out to be the piece of junk graphics card I had put
in it just for the os install. It had stretched downwards with time
until it shorted some pins on the disk controller on side where
they were soldered.
