2. Installation Instructions
- The Adaptec SAS RAID Controllers Installation and User's Guide
contains complete installation information for the controllers
and drivers, as well as complete instructions for all
utilities. The Adaptec Storage Manager User's Guide
contains complete installation information for the Adaptec
Storage Manager software.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
3. General Cautions
- While an array is being built or cleared, DO NOT remove and
reinsert any drive from that array. Doing so may cause
unpredictable results for any of the controller's arrays.
- While a drive is being cleared, DO NOT try to include it in a
new array. Doing so may cause unpredictable results.
- DO NOT move drives containing an array or volume from one
controller to another while the power is on. Doing so could
cause the loss of the array configuration or data, or both.
Instead, power off both affected controllers, move the drives,
and then restart.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
4. Known Limitations
4.1 ACU Utility
o On some Intel and IBM systems, when you try to run the ACU
utility, this message appears:
"Not enough free memory to load the utility!
Press any key to attempt loading the utility forcibly
OR Wait for the system initialization to be completed
[Default]"
This is normal. On Intel systems, wait for the system
initialization to be completed. Then the ACU will run. On IBM
systems, press any key when prompted to load the utility
forcibly.
o The ACU erroneously displays deleted logical drives in the
JBOD list. The logical drive(s) continue to appear in the
JBOD list until you delete all of the JBODs.
o With some enclosures, the ACU displays incorrect box/slot
information for managed disk drives; for example,
Exp/Phy instead of Box/Slot.
4.2 FreeBSD
Storage management for FreeBSD must be done through the Adaptec
Configuration Utility (ACU) and ARCCONF command line utility. Refer
to the User Guides on the two CDs provided with your controller.
4.3 OpenServer 6.0
Arrays may not be displayed correctly, even after you restart
your computer.
To resolve the problem:
As root, run 'resmgr -r -m vtoc' until it fails. Then, as
root, run '/etc/conf/bin/idconfupdate -f'. Then, reboot.
4.4 Creating an Array from the Adaptec Storage Manager CD
When you create an array with the Adaptec Storage Manager
bootable CD, the maximum size of the array is 2 TB.
4.5 Using the Controller with an Adaptec S50 JBOD Enclosure
Temperature warnings from Adaptec S50 JBOD Enclosure (firmware
version T016) are not shown in Adaptec Storage Manager (or on
the enclosure).
4.6 UnixWare and OpenServer
Adding or moving controllers in an existing UnixWare or OpenServer
system may cause some device resources to change, which may lead
to the operating system being unable to boot. Currently, there
is no workaround available in the operating system. Before
installing the operating system, make sure all PCI devices are
either enabled or installed.
4.7 Hot-adding Disk Drives
If you hot-add multiple disks simultaneously to a large
configuration (100 disk drives or more), it may take an extended
amount of time before those disk drives appear in Adaptec Storage
Manager.
With Intel Backplanes AXX4DRV3GEXP and AXX6DRV3GEXP, if a drive bay
is empty at enclosure power on and then a SATA disk drive is
hot-added into the empty bay, the controller does not detect
the new disk drive. To work around this issue, remove and reinsert
the SATA disk.
4.8 SuperMicro Disk Drive Enclosures
If the controller does not detect disk drives installed in a
SuperMicro M28E2 Mobile Rack, use backplane SAS connectors
marked with "SAS In" only.
4.9 Using the Controller with a SuperMicro X7DBE Motherboard
The ASR-2405 and ASR-2045 do not support the SuperMicro X7DBE
motherboard. Adaptec recommends using the SuperMicro X7DBE+.
4.10 Using the Controller with a Seagate Barracuda 1TB SATA Drive
To ensure reliability when using the ASR-2405 or ASR-2045 with
a Seagate Barracuda ES.2 1TB SATA Drive (ST31000340NS), Adaptec
recommends using Seagate firmware version SN05 or higher.
4.11 Tape Drive Support (Non-DASD Devices)
o Tape drives are supported on the ASR-2405 and ASR-2045
controllers, except as noted below.
o The Sony SDX-570V tape drive is not supported under Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 5.
