| Hi, I'm trying to install a DC390F scsi card into an Ultra10 Solaris 9 system. Under OBP, when executing probe-scsi-all, the card is recognize and the hard drive connected on it is correctly showed. Then executing a boot -rv return the following (and no more) on the scsi configuration, means the HD is not seen by Solaris : Sep 10 00:40:21 solaris scsi: [ID 365881 kern.notice] /pci@1f,0/pci@1/scsi@1 (glm0): Sep 10 00:40:21 solaris glm0 supports power management. Sep 10 00:40:21 solaris scsi: [ID 365881 kern.notice] /pci@1f,0/pci@1/scsi@1 (glm0): Sep 10 00:40:21 solaris Rev. 6 Symbios 53c875 found. Sep 10 00:40:21 solaris simba: [ID 370704 kern.notice] PCI-device: scsi@1, glm0 Sep 10 00:40:21 solaris genunix: [ID 936769 kern.notice] glm0 is /pci@1f,0/pci@1/scsi@1 After a check in /kernel/drv, it appears that there is no glm.conf file. Is this the root cause of the disk not being seen? Could someone advise me things to check in my system to be sure everything is set up correctly ? Thanks for your help ! Franck. |

You're looking for the wrong thing. Attaching disks to a HBA does not create a driver .conf file. Nor is there anything you would have to modify in glm.conf to attach any sort of SCSI device to a glm HBA. And many devices (besides glm) don't require any sort of .conf file at all. > Is this the root cause of the disk not being seen? Nope. Also, if all you looked for was "glm" log messages on your console, you're probably wrongly assuming your HD isn't working. > Could someone advise me things to check ... Check to see whether you installed the documentation CD and, if so, read the Sys Admin guide for the proper methods of configuring hardware. Or, if you neglected to install the guide, read it on docs.sun.com: Chapter 26: http://docs.sun.com/db/doc/806-4073/6jd67r9bf?a=view and Chapter 30: http://docs.sun.com/db/doc/806-4073/6jd67r9ev?a=view |

| Hi, After looking others posts, I found that a similar discussion has taken place some weeks ago where conclusion was that the board is not fully compliant with the 53c875 chip specifications, meaning it is incompatible with Sparc environnement. But , thank you for your reply. Bye.
