This stems from this thread, but I figured that necroing a thread from 8 months ago wouldn't be appreciated.
The short of it is that I purchased a PIKE 2008 (basically an LSI 2008 on an ASUS proprietary interface). I did so because my motherboard has 8 ports on it that will activate when it's installed, saving me valuable PCI slot space.
I'd like to update the firmware on the card to v16, since I get that little alert that says the driver and the firmware don't match. Do I basically run the sas2flash command on the live system (with drives attached) and reboot?
Side question: Can you run two LSI cards in the same system, one in IR mode and one in IT mode?
I am running FreeNAS-9.3-STABLE-201501162230. The hardware I'm using is:
ASUS Z8NR-D12
2x Intel x5650
96GB Kingston ECC
Intel x520-DA2 (10GbE )
Intel 82545EM (1 GbE)
ASUS PIKE 2008
The output of lspci:
The output of sas2flash:
The firmware is set to IR mode, but I didn't have to create a virtual disk to pass it through, and the system has access to SMART data. It's been working fine for several weeks now. The reason being that the PIKE card passes the drives through as JBOD if they aren't configured in RAID (source)
