This driver is known to work with the following cards:
* SA 5300
If notes are not already created in the /dev/cciss directory
# mkdev.cciss [ctlrs]
Where ctlrs is the number of controllers you have (defaults to 1 if not
specified).
Device Naming:
--------------
You need some entries in /dev for the cciss device. The mkdev.cciss script
can make device nodes for you automatically. Currently the device setup
is as follows:
Major numbers:
104 cciss0
105 cciss1
106 cciss2
etc...
Minor numbers:
b7 b6 b5 b4 b3 b2 b1 b0
|----+----| |----+----|
| |
| +-------- Partition ID (0=wholedev, 1-15 partition)
|
+-------------------- Logical Volume number
The suggested device naming scheme is:
/dev/cciss/c0d0 Controller 0, disk 0, whole device
/dev/cciss/c0d0p1 Controller 0, disk 0, partition 1
/dev/cciss/c0d0p2 Controller 0, disk 0, partition 2
/dev/cciss/c0d0p3 Controller 0, disk 0, partition 3
/dev/cciss/c1d1 Controller 1, disk 1, whole device
/dev/cciss/c1d1p1 Controller 1, disk 1, partition 1
/dev/cciss/c1d1p2 Controller 1, disk 1, partition 2
/dev/cciss/c1d1p3 Controller 1, disk 1, partition 3
