I must admit, a little surprised. Recently I came across the fact that in the latest versions of the Dells T630/620 with PERC 330/730 stopped working with SmartOS install And with any settings of the controller: 1) passthrough 2) JBOD 3) etc And the situation is repeated even if, for example, to make the initial installation from the image loaded through IDRAC ~At the beginning of work with disks the dump from Attach I have about 60 hosts with different types of DELLS, But this behavior I see for the first time The last time a multi-disk server was installed in November 2016 and then 330 PERC worked fine in passthrough No one has encountered such a problem? I will be grateful for the answer Nothing that bad but I have found PERC controllers are a pain in the arse to deal with. In my case it was random lockups. We are replacing all PERC controllers with HBA330s (http://i.dell.com/sites/doccontent/shared-content/data-sheets/en/Documents/dell-poweredge-hba330.pdf) which Dell sells for a surprisingly low price. I would recommend these for all new Dell systems.
