Using Debian and I have 2, LSI 9207-8i's. About a week ago, my Seasonic power supply had a catastrophic failure. It was powering a Rosewill RSV-L4412U chassis. Luckily, nothing was damaged except for the 3 drive cages. The drives inside (mdadm RAID 5 array) were AOK as was everything else. I think.
I replaced the drives cages and am back up and running but during the boot process, I see this displayed on the screen for about 5 or so seconds then the system continues the boot process and everything works as expected:
Code:
mpt2sas_cm1: overriding NVDATA EEDPTagMode setting
I don't know if it's always had this delay during boot since it's my backup server and I never really watch the output on the monitor during startup. After I put everything back together, I was sitting in front of it watching the boot process and noticed it 'hanging' there for a bit. I have a 9207-8i in another system and don't see this delay during the boot. Any ideas or think it's normal for it to hang there for a few seconds at boot on that line?
