Could you explain if you did any specific configuration on the Areca Raid 
controller other than setting it to Raid and manually marking every disk as 
pass-trhough so that the disks are viewable from opensolaris?

I have an ARC-1680ix-16. I have tried two configurations. JBOD and RAID but 
making all drives pass-through as you suggest.

In both Instances, I can only see two hard drives from opensolaris. I have 
tried a RHEL 5.2 Installation with the Areca controller and I can see all the 
drives using RAID with pass-through. Do I need any boot parameters for 
opensolaris or something else?

The Areca controller assigned the following settings for the drives when 
configured as pass-through

Channel-SCSI_ID-LUN     Disk#
0-0-0     01
0-0-1     02
0-0-2     03
0-0-3     04
0-0-4     05
0-0-5     06
0-0-6     07
0-0-7     08
----------
0-1-0     09
0-1-1     10
0-1-2     11
0-1-3     12
0-1-4     13
0-1-5     14
0-1-6     15
0-1-7     16

My Firmware is 1.45 and I am using the areca driver that comes with opensolaris 
2008.11

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
