I am ready to commission this controller after next week's backup, but would still like answers to some questions. Q1) I did not flash a rom file, do I need to do so (with the IT fw)?
Not unless you plan on trying to boot from one. I have the BIOS zeroed on all my cards as it speeds up POST.
Q2) The upgrade changed the SAS Address, should I reprogram the original address?
I always reset the address, but mainly because I don't want 2 cards in the machine with the same address.
Q3) Below are the relevant messages from the test, do they look good? Is the "overriding NVDATA EEDPTagMode setting" OK?
Can't answer that one. A quick squiz at the source doesn't seem like it's particularly evil though.
