Hello,

I am using in a dual Xeon Server a SRCU42X SCSI RAID controller by 
Intel. Fully equipped with 12 SCSI drives. (two different RAID5 
drives). But I am fighting with a very poor performance. When 
copying large files (2GB) from one directory to another I am 
getting 13MB/seconds. 

master ~ # uname -a
Linux master 2.6.22-gentoo-r9 #7 SMP Sun Nov 25 16:35:34 CET 2007 
i686 Intel(R) Xeon(TM) CPU 3.06GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux

I am using the Megaraid kernel drivers.
master ~ # grep -i mega /usr/src/linux/.config
CONFIG_MEGARAID_NEWGEN=y
CONFIG_MEGARAID_MM=y
CONFIG_MEGARAID_MAILBOX=y

master ~ # lspci -v  
04:00.0 RAID bus controller: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic MegaRAID (rev 
02)
        Subsystem: Intel Corporation MegaRAID Intel RAID Controller 
SRCU42X
        Flags: bus master, stepping, 66MHz, medium devsel, latency 
64, IRQ 20
        Memory at ff6f0000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=64K]
        Memory at fe780000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=512K]
        Expansion ROM at fe760000 [disabled] [size=128K]
        Capabilities: [c0] Power Management version 2
        Capabilities: [d0] Message Signalled Interrupts: Mask- 
64bit+ Queue=0/1 Enable-
        Capabilities: [e0] PCI-X non-bridge device

Also I can't use the webconsole of Intel. Not sure, if it's 
expecting the kernel driver as a module. When starting the 
webconsole and accessing it via http://IP:3570/ I am getting:
"No Raid Servers available"

Any ideas ?
Thanks
Stonki
