Dell OMSA reported the whole driver issue in the first place, when it normally reports firmware issues. I have nagios checking omreport in omsa so I get notifications when the raid has firmware/driver/actual issues. Yeah.

With my IBM blades in order to upgrade the firmware to avoid noted critical errors I had to install LSI's driver in order to do it from within Linux. Be sure to check for firmware upgrades, at least with IBM's HS21 there's noted firmware problems with 1068 that cause mirrored volumes to go offline in the event of a failed member. Less than desirable. I wonder they they're not getting this driver upstream? It seems all sorts of tools require LSI’s 4.x drivers.
