Storage-Related Issues

Chapter 5 • Known Issues

the OS might not boot if the boot disk is installed on a drive that is connected to the newly

upgraded HBA.

Workaround:

Reboot the system two times after the firmware upgrade. For future upgrades,

do not use the MSM software. Instead, upgrade the HBA firmware through the

SAS2IRCU

utility.

You can obtain the

SAS2IRCU

utility from the Oracle support area of the LSI web site:

Only 24 Devices Are Displayed In The System

BIOS Boot List

Bug 15648283

Issue:

If you install multiple HBA cards in an x86 system, the total number of devices

populated across all cards can be no more than 24. Additional devices will not be displayed in

the system BIOS boot list.

Workaround:

None. This is an architectural and implementation limitation of the HBA.

Kernel Panic During Oracle Solaris Operating

System Installation

Bug 15757220

Issue:

After removing and reinserting drives connected to the HBA, and then performing an

Oracle Solaris operating system (OS) installation on a volume configured on the HBA, a kernel

panic might occur during the “Configuring Devices” portion of the OS installation process.

Workaround:

Verify that the volume on which you plan to install the OS is not a resyncing

RAID 1 or RAID 10 volume. To prevent panics, ensure that the volume is in optimal mode,

rather than resync mode, prior to installing the OS.
