Ich werde noch wahnsinnig...

[Ebbi]

Moin,

das Umformatieren einer FC-AL Platte von 520 Byte Blocksize auf 512 Byte mit einer Blade 2000 treibt mich noch in den Wahnsinn.
Unter Solaris hat das bisher geklappt, nur bei einer Platte bin ich bisher glücklos gewesen.
Daher habe ich mal andere OS probiert.
Unter Linux will ich mein Glück mit sg_format versuchen, das soll wohl gehen:
http://linux.die.net/man/8/sg_format

Folgende Erlebnisse habe ich dabei gemacht:

- Ubuntu 9.10:

Nach dem  ich bei Linux glücklos war, wollte ich mal BSD probieren.
Allerdings ist da auch nicht viel besser:


- FreeBSD 8.0: Findet Platte (da0), hat aber beim Partitionieren Probleme:

Code: [Auswählen]

Unable to find device node for /dev/da0b in /dev! The creation of filesystems will be aborted.

- NetBSD 5.0.2: hängt sich auf

Code: [Auswählen]

mainbus0 (root): SUNW,Sun-Blade-1000 (): hostid 830ff357
cpu0 at mainbus0panic: alloc_cpuinfo: upa-portid
Stopped in pid 0.1 (system) at  0x13b78f0:      nop
db>


- OpenBSD 4.6: Platte gefunden, kann aber nicht benutzt werden

Code: [Auswählen]

Available disks are: sd0.
Which one is the root disk? (or 'done') [sd0]
The auto-allocated layout for sd0 is:
disklabel: /dev/rsd0c: Device not configured
Use (A)uto layout, (E)dit auto layout, or create (C)ustom layout? [a] a
disklabel: /dev/rsd0c: Device not configured
Use (A)uto layout, (E)dit auto layout, or create (C)ustom layout? [a] c

You will now create a Sun-style disklabel on the disk.  The disklabel defines
how OpenBSD splits up the disk into OpenBSD partitions in which filesystems
and swap space are created.  You must provide each filesystem's mountpoint
in this program.

disklabel: /dev/rsd0c: Device not configured
The auto-allocated layout for sd0 is:
disklabel: /dev/rsd0c: Device not configured
Use (A)uto layout, (E)dit auto layout, or create (C)ustom layout? [a] e
disklabel: /dev/rsd0c: Device not configured


Vielleicht hat noch jemand eine Idee, um mich vor dem Wahnsinn zu retten. 
Besten Dank!

Schonmal daran gedacht, das genau diese Platte einen Fehler hat. Funktioniert denn der Boot unter Linux mit den anderen FC-Platten?

Na klar.

Funktioniert denn der Boot unter Linux mit den anderen FC-Platten?

Bei den anderen Platten habe ich gar nicht so einen Eiertanz veranstalten müssen, das ging einfach mit format unter Solaris.
Die stecken schon im T3+.

Ich glaube, ich installiere mal auf eine funktionierende Platte ein Ubuntu und probiere dann mal dieses sg_format aus.

[Ebbi]

Bei meinem Versuch mit sformat hat die Platte funktioniert, aber ich irgendwas hat mit den Sektoren nicht gestimmt.
Es stand nicht die gleiche Kapazität wie bei den anderen Platten zur Verfügung.

Tja, nach dem Ubuntu ohne ql2200_fw.bin keine Platten findet, habe ich "mal schnell" Gentoo installiert.
[offtopic]Ich muss sagen, das ging wirklich relativ schnell und vor allem problemlos.[/offtopic]

sg_format aus den sg_utils ist aber recht umfangreich und ich habe keine für passende Option gefunden, um den Fehler von sformat zu korrigieren.
