HP Proliant DL580 G5安装centos7 x64无法识别阵列卡问题

1、进入安装光盘，用上下键选择安装centos——Install Centos7（注意不可按Enter键），如图：

 

　　2、按Tab键，对安装进行额外配置，在屏幕最下方会显示如下字样：

 

　　3、在额外配置的命令行上添加配置： hpsa.hpsa_simple_mode=1 hpsa.hpsa_allow_any=1，如图所示：

 

　　4、按回车继续安装

 　　经过以上几步，安装程序即可识别出HP服务器的硬盘。

So the HP RAID controller driver from around 2001 to ~2009 was the CCISS driver. There was a transition to the HPSA driver at some point, moving the Smart Array controller support back into the regular SCSI subsystem versus the dedicated block driver...

HP servers from the G1 to G5 era used the CCISS driver. On newer operating systems (EL6 and forward), HP ProLiant G6 and newer systems made use of the HPSA driver.

It turns out that RHEL7 removes the old CCISS module. Your fix in this case, since the Smart Array P400 controller in your G5 server isn't recognized, is to force the HPSA driver to load your older controller. Do this with:

hpsa.hpsa_allow_any=1

As a module parameter...

From the man page.

hpsa_allow_any=1: This option allows the driver to attempt to operate on any HP Smart Array hardware RAID controller, even if it is not explicitly known to the driver. This allows newer hardware to work with older drivers. Typically this is used to allow installation of operating systems from media that predates the RAID controller, though it may also be used to enable hpsa to drive older controllers that would normally be handled by the cciss(4) driver. These older boards have not been tested and are not supported with hpsa, and cciss(4) should still be used for these.

EDIT

This is a much more involved process than expected. You need to add that string to the module load parameters.

The official word is that the older controllers are just no longer supported. While you can get it running, it's less-than-ideal. So I'd probably stay away from EL7 for now. There will likely be a workaround, since there's an existing install base of these servers...

⁠kernel component, BZ#1061210 When the hpsa_allow_any option is used, the hpsa driver allows the use of PCI IDs that are not listed in the driver's pci-id table. Thus, cards detected when this option is used, are not supported in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.

Name
hpsa - HP Smart Array SCSI driver
Synopsis
modprobe hpsa [ hpsa_allow_any=1 ]
Description
hpsa is a SCSI driver for HP Smart Array RAID controllers.
Options
 
 

  
  
   
   hpsa_allow_any=1: This option allows the driver to attempt to operate on any HP Smart Array hardware RAID controller, even if it is not explicitly known to the driver. This allows newer hardware to work with older drivers. Typically this is used to allow installation of operating systems from media that predates the RAID controller, though it may also be used to enable 
   
   hpsa to drive older controllers that would normally be handled by the 
   
   cciss(4) driver. These older boards have not been tested and are not supported with 
   
   hpsa, and 
   
   cciss(4) should still be used for these.
  
  
 
 
Supported hardware
 
 

  
  
   
   The 
   
   hpsa driver supports the following Smart Array boards:
   
   
Smart Array P700M
Smart Array P212
Smart Array P410
Smart Array P410i
Smart Array P411
Smart Array P812
Smart Array P712m
Smart Array P711m
StorageWorks P1210m
  
  
 
 
Configuration details
 
 

  
  
   
   To configure HP Smart Array controllers, use the HP Array Configuration Utility (either 
   
   hpacuxe(8) or 
   
   hpacucli(8)) or the Offline ROM-based Configuration Utility (ORCA) run from the Smart Array's option ROM at boot time.
