Hi Eric and Grant, These messages, all 15 of them only appear during the boot sequence. I never see them at any other time. The messages are in dmesg and syslog. This is a Sun X4200 M2 Netra server. The LSI SAS1064 "RAID enabled" Ultra320 SCSI controller supports RAID0, RAID1, and RAID1E modes. The implementation uses RAID1, so this chip is RAID-enabled. I will look into this more today and report back any useful information I learn. Thanks very much for your help in understanding this.
