I have a server at work that is acting up. The raid controller, a LSI 9261-8i, is frequently dropping all the logical drives offline. (Actually, this has been happening every since it was put in place, and we'd just reboot the thing, but only recently my boss wants to resolve it.) Looking up info, it is a frequent problem with the LSI driver and some of the raid controllers and motherboard combinations cause this issue, and Avago/Broadcom isn't going to work on a driver level fix for this since it is an older controller. So, my boss wants to change out the raid driver with a different one. We're buying a Broadcom 9361-8i controller to replace it, along with BBU and cables.
The problem is that the new controller uses different drivers, and I have no idea how to change out the boot storage drivers in Linux. My boss knows, but is unwilling to tell me, saying I need to look it up to learn it. (He does this a LOT.) I can't find a thing on this through multiple Google searches.
How would I go about doing this? Does anyone here know?
