dss6 in eval mode

Intel ssr212mc2 with Intel PCI RAID card + battery backup.

RAID/SCSI controllers

LSI Logic / Symbios Logic M1064E MegaRAID SAS (rev 04) (2 x 150 GB boot drives)

Intel Corporation RAID Controller SRCSAS144E (12 x 2 TB )

12 x 2TB SATA disks, 11 in hardware RAID5 + 1 hot spare, setup in the CTL-G PCI RAID controller firmware.

(we'd like to install dss on the 2 x 150GB "boot" drives, but dss doesn't offer them at install time, so dss is installed on the RAID5.)

But the show stopper is that in the Web i/f:

Setup : h/w raid units: LSI0 : LD0

shows PD0-PD10 with PD11 being hot spare.


There is column of check boxes with column "R" unchecked. We can't see what that R means in the docs. We check it and APPLY, but "the operation has failed".

unchecked, we go to Configuration:Vol Mgr and no units are visible.

Thanks
