hi-
i've got a couple of 2650's running 4.6 (with updated bge driver).
was looking at the linux stuff that claims to talk to the ERA. [ERA
is a device that let's you power cycle and control the 2650 remotely.]
has anyone ported it off to run under linux emulation under freebsd?
it would be cool to be able to run /usr/sbin/racadm.
looking at the dell linux distribution, the racser-src RPM
indicates that there is an emulated 16550 UART on this PCI device:
none1@pci0:4:1: class=0xff0000 card=0x00081028 chip=0x00081028 rev=0x00 hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Dell Computer Corporation'
device = 'PowerEdge 3/Di Expandable RAID Controller'
[i don't think the "device" line is correct, this is the RAC
device, not the RAID?]
the racser-devel RPM seems to indicate that you establish a PPP
connection to the above UART. seems like the sio driver could
be applied to none1@pci0:4:1.
the /usr/sbin/racadm is also linked with the dellmsa package, but
i'm not sure how much it needs from it? the dellomsa-drivers RPM
has an additional kernel module in it (basically a bunch of .o's with
a the source for a linux shim that is layered on top of it).
