It wasn't clear if this applied to the amr(4)-based PERC cards or
just the
aac(4) ones.
Sounds like the re-worked amr driver will be very much better, at
least
once a few more bugs have been ironed out of it.
From my experience, the amr driver does not issue warnings of any
sort that show up on the console or in log files. The aac driver is
more chatty -- I see log file lines about the battery being
recharged, etc.
I've never had a drive failure on any box in which I have an aac
driven card, so can't speak to that but I'd bet $1 that it would log
it. The amr driver doesn't log drive failures -- one must run some
utility to probe it.
