Re: Installing CentOS 5.4 64bit on server with LSI SAS 1068E controller.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



It's listed as a MegaRAID controller. I've tried the following drivers suggested by Supermicro with no success.

megasr-13.10.0708.2009-1-rhel50-ga-all.img
megasr-13.10.0708.2009-1-rhel50-u1-all.img
megasr-13.10.0708.2009-1-rhel50-u2-all.img
megasr-13.10.0708.2009-1-rhel50-u3-all.img

>From what I can tell from reading, it is a software RAID and putting it in IT mode makes it work as a JBOD.  I'm not understanding how to do RAID 10 with it in IT mode.

Thanks, Billy

I'm trying to install CentOS 5.4 on a machine with a LSI SAS 1068E
controller.  I've googled all over the place and found a few different
drivers for RHEL5 for it.. and tried a few of them.. Some will load,
some complain that this isn't the correct version.. non of them work
when it comes to showing Hard Drivers in the partition manager. The
machine is a Supermicro SYS-6015V-M3 server. Any help would be appreciated.

    

run lspci on the system from the rescue mode of the installer disk.
It will probably say something
like Megaraid.

We have a newer motherbaord from Super Micro and we had the same problem.
The motherboard data info says LSI 1068E but depending on the jumper
setting of the board it could be
1078E instead and that is not supported by Linux until a much later
kernel (2.6.32).

Jumper for IT mode and get the IT firmware and things will work correctly.
