OK..that works..note all channels negotiated at 6Gbps.

Purposely did NOT attach any enclosures to the switch yet....doing that now.
 
Step 2: Connect Two Rackable enclosures to the SAS switch (still using the built in Rackable SAS expanders)


se3016saslsisas6160.png


It works!...sas switch seeing the enclosure *and* 8 drives in each....SAS uplink ports stays negotiated at 6Gbps even though these enclosures are 3Gbps....so still a *chance* that SAS Multiplexing will work.

I have these terminating into an OpenIndiana server (LSI 9205-8e)...all of the drives from one of the enclosures came up automatically...but none of the drives came up (e.g. using 'format' command) on the second enclosure). Doing a 'reconfigure' reboot now.
 
Well...I got ONE of the Rackable enclosures to be seen through the SAS switch just one time...now no matter what I do the drives will just NOT come up under format..have tried multiple reconfiguration reboots to no avail.

I *can* see the drives via the SAS switch mgmt interface *and* via lsiutil on the OI box.

I try running cfgadm -a ..that just hangs for hours.

I do notice these messages in /var/adm/messages

If I connect the enclosures *directly* to the LSI 9205-8e all is good...it's only when I have the switch in the middle that they aren't 'seen'.

Anyone have any ideas what these messages mean?
 
packetboy, any updates?

how has the SAS6160 been performing?
 
What are the drives? SATA? Try disabling Multipath. (I think it's something like 'stmsboot -d'). I had a bunch of weird problems when I initially had multipath enabled on a SC846 with SATA drives.
 
I'm not using the switch right now...working on testing with connecting the Omnistore SE-3016s directly to LSI HBAs as you can't connect drives directly to the SAS switch (you MUST use an expander-enabled enclosure)...I've disabled the expanders in the 3016s at the moment and wiring the chassis SAS backplanes to the LSI HBAs.

If I have time, I'll run some tests with the 3016s in expander mode and try running through the SAS switch.
 
There is a ZFS server using this switch, that mwroobel talkes of. But it uses FreeBSD. Maybe you should try FreeBSD too?

"Well, if it is thoroughput limitations you are worried about....
Let me cite an example. And it is a very large ZFS system, which they expect will scale to over 10PB
http://www.lsi.com/downloads/Public/Direct Assets/LSI_CS_PittsburghSupercomp_041111.pdf
each rack consists of two servers. Each of the two servers has a single LSI-9201-16e JBOD HBA (x8) connected to the LSI SAS 6160 switch which are then connected to 495 3TB SATA drives So that is 1 x8 handling 247 odd drives. Screaming 4GB/s sequential speed is not the rule in installs like these, it is high IOPs and lots of high queue depth random access requests. Oh yeah, it uses SATA drives with those evil SAS HBAs and Expanders "

That's insane. Thanks for posting this.
