The 3ware 9650SE 24 MB supports up to 24 ports. However, smartmontools has a check for 3ware,NN where NN must be less than 16. This means that the disks from 16 to 24 cannot be monitored. Can you change the limit to be 23 rather than 15 ? I have tested smartctl with a modified version of the code to remove the test and this works well for the disks on ports 16 through 23. Thanks, Tim Bell CERN Technology Support |

What type of cooling/etc? ... unfortunately off topic, but this would interest me too - I am just building a machine with the 16-port version of that controller (I would have preferred 24 ports, but the biggest case I could find has 11x5.25" bays (= room for 18 hot-swappable drives).

Hi Tim, Will do. Tell Hugo and the others that I'll be in Geneva on Sept 5/6 for the 'Pangalactic BOINC meeting'. If you guys want to get together to chat I'd enjoy it. I'm going to be buying another 400TB of RAID storage later this year. I'd be grateful for your advice. cheers, Bruce On Sat, 16 Jun 2007, Tim Bell wrote: > > The 3ware 9650SE 24 MB supports up to 24 ports.

Tim, I forgot to ask -- could you or Hugo please check that the latest CVS version now works OK. I couldn't easily test my changes. Also let me know if you notice any inconsistency in the docs -- I tried to make them correct for smartctl/smartd. Cheers, Bruce On Sun, 8 Jul 2007, Bruce Allen wrote: > Hi Tim, > > Will do.
