Mailling lists and Forum's

Sometimes I wonder if the questions I post to forums and mailling lists are too hard. Or I am trying to do something no one else has ever done/tried. I have postings out on forums over 2 years old that don't even have a response. When I post out to mailling lists it seems every one on the list ignores it. I sent out 3 emails to Dell's Linux PowerEdge mailling list and I still have not gotten one response. I really hope Matt or someone else on the list has some sort of solution.

Setting Up Linux on a SAN

I have now found that the SAN is being loaded but I am having issues addressing the LUNs that are available on it. I have started banging around with a command:

echo "scsi add-single-device 0 0 0 1" > /proc/scsi/scsi

Which doesn't seem to want to work. On a side note it seems that the dkms module aacraid doesn't upgrade when using the "dkms match -k 2.4.21-15.0.3.ELsmp --templatekernel=2.4.21-4.ELsmp" command. I am going to post that to the Dell Mailling list also see if there is anything that I can do about this.

RHAS 3.0 on a Dell SAN

Setting up RedHat AS 3.0 on a Dell SAN. I am having troubles finding information on how to set this up. I have posted to the Dell Linux mailling list but I am now in limbo waiting on a reply.

I did find some cool stuff out about Dell's DKMS Linux Kernel module. It will update any drivers that you install using DKMS at once. Using the command:

dkms match -k 2.4.21-15.0.3.ELsmp --templatekernel=2.4.21-4.ELsmp

But I still can not see the LUNs on the SAN.

First One

I new I should have created a blog a while ago but now I am doing it and hopefully getting things done.
