LSI 9211-4i IT firmware and driver version?

  • Greetings,


    My new build is experiencing mpt2sas driver issues so I'm wondering what driver and firmware versions folks are using.
    I've flashed my LSI 9211-4i with IT firmware and I've loaded the latest mpt2sas driver from LSI.


    Code
    [    1.613597] mpt2sas version 20.00.00.00 loaded
    [    2.262244] mpt2sas0: LSISAS2004: FWVersion(20.00.02.00), ChipRevision(0x03), BiosVersion(07.39.00.00)


    with the stock wheezy mpt2sas and the shipped IR firmware I was seeing kernel oops and eventually crashed the machine while building a RAID 10 with mdadm.
    Then I flashed the firmware as noted above and still had crashes so today I've loaded the V20 driver and am rebuilding a 4 disk RAID 10 with 4TB WD Reds.


    Anybody else had similar experiences?
    What versions are considered stable?


    Thanks,
    Rob.

    I have a 9211-8i. I purchased it a little over two years ago and never had any problems. I use the backports 3.16 kernel and its builtin driver.

    Code
    mpt2sas version 16.100.00.00 loaded
    mpt2sas0: LSISAS2008: FWVersion(15.00.00.00), ChipRevision(0x03), BiosVersion(07.29.00.00)


    I would stop using the LSI driver and install the backports kernel (button in omv-extras to do that).

    omv 7.0.4-2 sandworm | 64 bit | 6.5 proxmox kernel

    plugins :: omvextrasorg 7.0 | kvm 7.0.10 | compose 7.1.2 | k8s 7.0-6 | cputemp 7.0 | mergerfs 7.0.3


    omv-extras.org plugins source code and issue tracker - github

    Please don't PM for support... Too many PMs!

  • Thanks guys! V16 IT firmware and the backports kernel for the win!


    I was really beginning to worry about OMV stability until I loaded this config.


    Cheers!
