The problem with using the hpsa driver is that I need to install RHEL 7.1 on a Proliant system using the SmartArray 400 controller.  Therefore, I need a driver that supports it to even install RHEL 7.1.  RHEL 7.1 doesn’t generically recognize that controller out of the box.

I known, got the same issue when utilizing old proliants for test/PoC with newer SW.

Maybe we should try to use such old raid ctlrs similar to this for OSD journaling and avoid wearability issues as with SSDs :)

I understand there’s a KMOD_CCISS package available.  However, I can’t find it for download.  Anybody have any ideas?

Oh I believe HP swapped cciss for hpsa (Smart Array) driver long ago… so maybe only download cciss latest source and then compile your self, or…

 

Sourceforge says:

 

*New* The cciss driver has been removed from RHEL7 and SLES12. If you really want cciss on RHEL7 checkout the elrepo directory.
