Since James confirms that I'm doomed to ad hoc methods tracking
device-ids to bays, I'm interested in knowing if somehow your ability to
clear the persistent mapping for *all* of the drives on the card somehow
gets you to a stable-state? Seems to me that, if the tool is run from
the BIOS, like the LSI Configuration Utility, then it kind defeats the
uptime that I'm trying to achieve by having a RAID system in the first
place... Is it, by chance, a user land program?

Yes, please! - can someone from SUN please request LSI to add a feature
to selectively disable their card's persistent drive mapping feature?
Thanks,
