Hello all,

I have a system with a Smart Array 5i/532 with OpenSuSE 11.3. Now i want to upgrade this to OpenSuSE 12.2, but i have a problem. I have noticied from another system with OpenSuSE 12.2, of a module change, from cciss to hpsa, and a change from /dev/cciss to /dev/sdx.

Now, my questions are basically 2:

- When i do the upgrade of that system, will be used the hpsa module? It will be used for an Smart Array 5i/532? I have at least one server on 12.2 with a Smart Array 5i/532 - they're using the cciss module, kernel 3.4.6.2.

Thank you, that is a nice answer :) My question was born because i have a Smart Array G6, P410i, and that system is passed from cciss module to hpsa, upgrading it from 11.3 to 12.1 (kernel 3.1.10-1.9-desktop), and that was be a real problem :)

...

- If the hpsa module will be used, and the hard disk device change from /dev/cciss to /dev/sdx, what i can do to make the system bootable? I need a detailed list of operations to be done in this case, the last time it is happened the only solution i have found is to re-install all the system... There is certainly no need to reinstall.

a) reconfigure your bootloader b) reconfigure /etc/fstab c) rebuild your initrd, but that should happen automatically.

It was an annoying change from /dev/cciss to /dev/sdx, right?

Yes, correct. At this point i think the problem was only with P410i... Thank you, Claudio. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
