Re: Adaptec Storage Manager reports "No controllers were found in this system"



Hello again,

I downloaded a newer ASM package, asm_linux_x64_v5_20_17414.rpm, off
the Adaptec site and got the Adaptec Storage Manager GUI to work
properly.

In my original post I had installed a much older version of the ASM
package asm-linux_v2.12_922.rpm. This package was "supposed" to work
with the 2230SLP card and the SuSE OS though. Aparently not : )

I'm still curious about the fact that the controller card is running
at 66Mhz though. I used to work for Silicon Graphics as a System
Support Engineer and I used to install a lot of SCSI and Fiber Channel
HBAs in their IX-Bricks. Depending on the model of card and whether
or not the neighbor slot was populated, the PCI-X card could run at
66Mhz, 100Mhz, or 133Mhz.

A good example would be putting two U320 cards in adjoing slots.
These cards would normally clock at 133Mhz each but since their paired
up on the same SHUB (Bus) chip they downclock to 100Mhz. The only
time I've seen a card clock at 66Mhz is because it's a legacy card and
didn't support a faster bus speed or the bus, in the case of an older
I-Brick, only supported 66Mhz.

Thanks,
