Paul Collins, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number> ** Tags removed: kernel-bug-exists-upstream ** Tags added: needs-upstream-testing ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1006212 Title: cciss: hpacucli "ctrl slot=0 create type=ld drives=2:4" hangs, spews call trace in dmesg Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in “linux” source package in Precise: Confirmed Bug description: On a Hewlett-Packard ProLiant DL385 G1 running precise, linux- image-3.2.0-24-generic 3.2.0-24.39, when I issue "ctrl slot=0 create type=ld drives=2:4" via hpacucli, the command hangs.

When the machine is back up and I examine the array configuration in hpacucli, the new voume is present and marked "OK". The problem is also present in kernel-ppa's v3.4-precise: pjdc@prat:~$ cat /proc/version Linux version 3.4.0-030400-generic (apw@gomeisa) (gcc version 4.4.3 (Ubuntu 4.4.3-4ubuntu5.1) ) #201205210521 SMP Mon May 21 09:22:02 UTC 2012 so I will tag as unfixed upstream. I am also marking as "Confirmed", being unable to run apport-collect when reproducing on 3.2, since the machine has no network due to bug #1005699.
