Well, it was sysutils/megarc for PERC/4. On PERC/5 mfi(1), it's
whatever we decide to call it.
Dell is shipping a CLI with OMSA or whatever. We may have to hack on
the kernel interface:

We've got the /dev/mfi? management interface already, just
need to port the Linux code over.
I'm really starting to think OpenBSD will beat FreeBSD to the game
with the bio(4) RAID management hardware abstraction subsystem:

Is there enough similarly in the work to think about joining forces and
building one set of tools for all the BSDs? I know that there are
differences at the driver level, but I think that in the longer term,
that would
be better than simply copying and porting code...
