I'm getting a couple of systems that are arriving with the new 3ware 9550sx controller. Does anyone know when this will be natively supported by CentOS?
Has anyone built an RPM of the driver/module for this new controller?

When it's natively supported upstream.

Check out the 3ware driver page. They're shipping CentOS compatible drivers now, and mentioned in their support page. They work quite well. -- Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic. -Arthur C. Clarke

yay! Fainally...

I wonder if they would let us host rpms in a repo within the .centos.org domain space....

I see it there. I need to have kickstart server as well. I don't see a module compiled for that.

We buy a lot of 3ware controllers. We've been asking our hardware vendor to work more closely with 3ware. I'm just glad official support is available.

We told them of our master hacking skills and told them if they refused to support CentOS we would put the deadly apache test page on their website :)

No doubt, other systems are similarly 'cursed' ;-)

Did you see in one of the follow-up threads that some of the literatti had designated as "Tuttles" unreasonable support requests.

If they have a plant in Tuttle, OK, you might be in deep doh-doh now! ;-))

Okay, that failed to parse. There's no difference between something in kickstart and the normal install other than user interaction and some %pre or %post scripting goodness.

You'll need to download the drivers from amcc - the stock centos 4 drivers don't find the card. Also, if you're running a board with an nforce chipset, you're possiblynot going to be very happy... Even though a lot of people seem to run ok that way, many others face issues. I tried several configurations and all show stability issues with high throughput. If you have a simple pci slot, you'll probably not be able to drive enough I/O - but on a pci-x board like a tyan S2895 I've seen a number of crashes...
So if you have random lockups on your config, try stress testing your disk io subsystem first...
Peter.
