Correction: I'm *not* using host-RAID.  The cabinet does the RAID
internally (configured via network interface) and is just a SAN
(the LV's on the cabinet show up as disks) for the connected hosts
and the LSI 22320R is only used as an "ordinary" SCSI controller.

I'm using the MPT Fusion (mpt*) driver.

The first yes, w.r.t. cache settings I have to check all settings on
both the controller and the cabinet.
