Re: Help with HP MSA 1500cs and DL380

Hello,
Recently, my company moved my storage from 4 HP MSA30 scsi shelves (2
per machine mirrored) to two HP MSA 1500cs SAN devices. I have moved
the MSA30 shelves into the SAN, and also have 4 (2 per msa1500cs)
MSA20 SATA shelves.
I am running into more then a few issues getting these units,
particularily the MSA20s happy, HP is giving me a hard time because
freebsd is not a supported OS, and i am sort of lost and looking for
resources specific to this setup. I can go into further details of the
issues that I am experiencing, but since this is slightly OT for this
list i just thought i would throw a flag out there and see if anyone
can offer advice.
my setups are two identical dl380 machines running 5.4-Stable from
Aug. 4. I am using the HP OEM Qlogic 2313 fiber card which uses the
isp driver. each machine is attached to a msa1500cs with 4 shelves, 2
msa20 and two msa30.
really, any tips at all about where to find resources for a setup like
this would be gratefully appreciated.
The freebsd-scsi@ mailinglist is really the place you want to ask.
Don't forget to mention what OS-revision you are actually running.
Good luck getting it to work, though - FreeBSD doesn't seem to be very
SAN-friendly, esp. in the HA-deppartment.
cheers,
Rainer
