Hang on - here's something you might be interested in: I just rebuilt a DL380 G5 from XP Server (!) to CentOS 6.5. After I installed hpacucli, and tried to configure the attached RAID box... and *boy* was that screwed up. I have 25 drives in the RAID box. But hpacucli showed me drives in bays 9-17 *twice*, then the rest as singletons. I rebooted, and used the firmware, and it reported the same thing, meaning there's crap in that thar code. However, I was able to configure it the way we wanted - 24 drives RAID 6, one hot spare, because in the firmware, it offers the drives with check boxes, so regardless of what where it *says* they are, I could check what I wanted, and that worked correctly.
mark, unimpressed with HP software
