Guess this new ctrl does not use the cciss module anymore.
If it's like a P410i like what I have it uses the hpsa driver.
HP is moving from the old cciss driver to the new hpsa driver. On C5 all controllers user cciss but on C6 the newer generation (like 411, 812, ..) use hpsa. In the future all controllers may be moved to hpsa (afaict, but who knows). The old driver used the odd /dev/cciss/cXdYpZ naming and was a non-scsi block device driver. hpsa is (as almost everything else) a scsi driver (finally).
Good to know. I will have to adapt my kickstart/scripts to handle both...
Thx to all, JD
