2.2 Windows Setup on Adaptec Series 6 Controllers
On Windows 2008 R2 64-bit systems, the Setup program tries to load
Inbox storage drivers first, by default. As a result, you must load
the driver for Adaptec Series 6/6Q/6E/6T controllers TWICE.
The first time you load the driver, the OS displays the message
"No drives were found'. Select 'Load Driver' again, uncheck "Hide
drivers that are not compatible...', then select the Series 6
controller driver. On the second attempt, the driver will load
successfully.
2.3 Solaris 11 Express Setup
Installing Solaris 11 Express on a bootable array is not
supported in this release.
2.4 SCSI Device Setup on Debian and Ubuntu Linux
o After installing the Debian Linux driver, you must replace the
SCSI Device Partition Name in Debian’s GRUB bootloader with
a UUID. Failure to update the partition name may cause the
system to hang when the OS is rebooted. In the GRUB bootloader
file "menu.lst", replace the SCSI device partition name
(for instance, /dev/sda1), with UUID=<string>.
o After installing the Ubuntu Linux driver, you must increase
the SCSI command timeout value from 30 seconds (the default
value) to 90 seconds. Failure to increase the timeout may
cause the system to hang with a EXT4 error when a good drive
is removed from a rebuilding array. Use these commands to
increase the timeout in SYSFS, assuming /dev/sda, /dev/sdb,
and /dev/sdc are the device LUNs on the Ubuntu Linux host:
echo ``90``> /sys/block/sda/device/timeout
echo ``90``> /sys/block /sdb/device/timeout
echo ``90``> /sys/block/sdc/device/timeout
2.5 Other Linux Setup Issues
Before installing the Linux operating system on a logical drive,
be sure to clear (remove) old data first. If you do not
remove old data prior to installation, the OS may not boot.
As a workaround, use the boot parameter 'aacraid.wwn=2'.
2.6 Adaptec maxCache Setup
o Adaptec maxCache SSD caching is supported on Adaptec Series Q
controllers only.
o Adaptec Series Q controllers support any maxCache-compatible
SSD on the compatibility list; see www.adaptec.com/compatibility
for a full list of compatible SSD drives.
o You can install a maximum of 8 SSDs on a controller for
maxCache caching applications.
See the user's guide for complete maxCache SSD installation and
setup instructions.
2.7 Power Management Setup
You must use a compatible combination of Adaptec Storage Manager
and controller firmware and driver software to use the power
management feature. All software components must support power
management. You can download the latest controller firmware
and drivers from the Adaptec Web site at www.adaptec.com.
