The tech at the datacenter told the controller to continue booting despite the drive being "missing" and then removed and re-inserted the drive at my request. Now that the system has booted the RAID controller sees the drives as shown below.

I also found this report from 9 months ago that had the same problem but I did not see a resolution http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-scsi/2010-September/004526.html >How-To-Repeat: Temporarily lose a drive on a controller that uses the mfi driver and after telling the RAID control to continue booting anyway try to re-create the array/jbod device with mfiutil. >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: _______________________________________________ freebsd-bugs@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-bugs To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-bugs-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
