Sun StorageTek limit of 24 logical devices - uh oh
Hey folks,
I wanted to configure the thing as JBOD and let Linux do the RAID with mdadm, and that all went fine for the first J4400.
I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 on a SunFire x2250 and I have a Sun StorageTek card in there with 2 x J4400 arrays.
I wanted to configure the thing as JBOD and let Linux do the RAID with mdadm, and that all went fine for the first J4400.
The version of arcconf I was able to find does not have the JBOD option that I see when I google, so what I did was this :
for nn in 23 22 21 20 19 18 17 16 15 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 do /usr/StorMan/arcconf create 1 logicaldrive max volume 0,$nn noprompt done
And then using Linux mdadm I created 4 x RAID6 volumes, and one big RAID0 out of that. Works like a charm!
