Installing the Driver

8

If you need to add devices to a secondary controller, open a 
terminal window and type 

sdiconfig -l

. This utility 

returns the device address for all controllers recognized by the 
operating system and any attached devices. (You will need this 
information to perform 

Step 9

.) The device address is of the 

format 

cCCbBBtTTdDD

, where 

■

CC specifies the controller ID.

■

BB is the controller channel (or bus) number of the bus to 
which the disks are attached. The range is 0 - 7.

■

TT is the target ID (TID). The range is 0 - 31.

■

DD (the second “D”) is always zero.

9

To add a drive to a secondary controller, type 

diskadd

 

cCCbBBtTTdDD

For example, a new drive or array is connected to a secondary 
Adaptec RAID controller on Channel A and the drive has a 
TID 0. The controller number is 1 because it is a secondary 
controller. Therefore, the command would be 

diskadd

 

c1b0t0d0

For details on 

diskadd

, refer to the diskadd(1M) man page.

FreeBSD

The Adaptec RAID controller driver is embedded in the kernel for 
versions 4.1.1 and later. Therefore, you do not need to do anything 
related to driver installation once your operating system is installed.

Note: 

For the most up-to-date information on Adaptec’s 

support of FreeBSD, or to download driver sources, visit
