LSI SAS 9207-4i4e firmware/BIOS/driver set

Post by asavage »

I am setting up a 9207 to operate with 10.2.0.2.2235

I've read that it's best to keep the firmware level matched to the FreeBSD driver level, but I do not know what the driver level is in this version.

(I've also read to avoid P20)

What Pxx firmware level do I want?
Regards,
Al S.

you want the same level as the driver.
see the dmesg output for the driver version.
Nas4Free 11.1.0.4.4517. Supermicro X10SLL-F, 16gb ECC, i3 4130, IBM M1015 with IT firmware. 4x 3tb WD Red, 4x 2TB Samsung F4, both GEOM AES 256 encrypted.

The driver version is 20, so I suppose I'm stuck using the P20 firmware.
