From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0.2) Gecko/20030716 Description of problem: Attempting to install QU2 on a Dell 1750 with an LSI MPT scsi controller for the onboard disks and a Adaptec 39160 for connecting to a Dell Powervault 220. During the install aic7xxx loads followed by mptscsih. Mptscsih fails out with the following: mptbase: Initiating ioc0 bringup ioc0: ERROR Doorbell Ack timeout (2) ioc0: ERROR Doorbell Ack timeout (2) ioc0: ERROR Diagnostic reset failed (102h) ioc0: Not Ready Warning WARNING: ioc0 did not initalize properly! (-1) Repeats for ioc1 mptbase: 2 mpt adapters found, 0 installed. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Take a dell 1750 add in an adaptec 39160 2. Start QU2 install Actual Results: mtpscsih fails to load. 0 disks will be found. Expected Results: mptscsih should load and bring in /dev/sda and /dev/sdb Additional info: removing the adaptec controller will allow you to do an install. After the install the e.24 kernel does not have an issue with both the adaptec and LSI card being in the machine.
Maybe the latest U3 bits address this issue? cc'ing Jeremy and Tom Coughlan...
AS2.1-U3 fails with the same error on a Dell PE1750
We updated the mpt fusion driver to version 2.05.11.03 in U4, can we give that a try?
I can give U4 a try but that's not out yet (i'll search for a beta version of U4). Regarding U3: the trick with tacking out the Adaptec controller didn't worked (well it worked halfway): the mptscsih driver was successfully loaded and recognized sda and sdb. After fetching the ks.cfg file the box loaded the adaptec driver (there's no mention of it anywhere) and anaconda bombed out with: "Running on a live system. This is a very stupid thing to do!" which seems to mean no HD's where found. U2 works flawlessly (but only with the adaptec card removed) regardless of the installer trying to load the adaptec driver too.
Encountered the same issue with U5 and a similar 1750. Removing the Adaptec card seems to have fixed the problem. Server is installing as expected.
Server installed. Added the Adaptec card back. Dell Powervault PV122t not picked up by the driver, needed to do the following to get the tape device and autoloader generic device loaded: echo "scsi remove-single-device 2 0 6 1" > /proc/scsi/scsi echo "scsi remove-single-device 2 0 6 0" > /proc/scsi/scsi rmmod st rmmod sg echo "scsi add-single-device 2 0 6 1" > /proc/scsi/scsi echo "scsi add-single-device 2 0 6 0" > /proc/scsi/scsi modprobe sg modprobe st
