Last week I wrote that a SuperMicro 8-Port SATA Controller doesn't work with Ubuntu 10.04 64 Bit. We got error messages from mv_sas.c driver and the disks became unaccessible. The same happens with OpenSuSE 11.2 so I assume it is a general driver problem.
Today we tested the same hardware using a CentOS 5.4 x86_64 LiveCD to check whether this might really be regression as already asked by Richard Weait on 2010-04-05. Since it is difficult to test with real applications using a live cd, I tested copying a bunch of huge TIF image files from one directory to another repeatedly. This ran without problems. (RAID10 build out of 8 SATA disks, filesystem XFS). So in the moment I've to assume there is really a regression in the mvsas driver module. CentOS 5.4 contains mvsas version 0.5.4 whereas both Ubuntu Lucid and OpenSuSE 11.2 contain mvsas version 0.8.2 We tested the 32-Bit Desktop version also: It also doesn't work. Any suggestions how I should proceed to narrow this down any further? -- Lucid crash on heavy DB i/o (mvsas?) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/554398 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
