ARCMSR(4) FreeBSD Kernel Interfaces Manual ARCMSR(4) NAME arcmsr -- Areca SATA II RAID Controller driver SYNOPSIS To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in your kernel configuration file: device pci device scbus device da device arcmsr Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in loader.conf(5): arcmsr_load="YES" DESCRIPTION The arcmsr driver provides support for the Areca ARC-11xx and ARC-12xx series of SATA II RAID controllers. These controllers feature RAID-0, 1, 3, 5, 6, and 10 and JBOD acceleration for up to 16 SATA drives. Raid level and stripe level migration, online capacity expansion, hot inser- tion/removal, automatic failover and rebuild, and SMART are also sup- ported. Access to the arrays is provided via the SCSI CAM /dev/da? device nodes. A management interface is also present via the /dev/arcmsr? device node. Management tools for i386 and amd64 are avail- able from Areca. HARDWARE The arcmsr driver supports the following cards: +o ARC-1110 +o ARC-1120 +o ARC-1130 +o ARC-1160 +o ARC-1170 +o ARC-1180 +o ARC-1110ML +o ARC-1120ML +o ARC-1130ML +o ARC-1160ML +o ARC-1210 +o ARC-1220 +o ARC-1230 +o ARC-1260 +o ARC-1280 +o ARC-1210ML +o ARC-1220ML +o ARC-1231ML +o ARC-1261ML +o ARC-1280ML FILES /dev/da? Array block device /dev/arcmsr? Management interface SEE ALSO da(4), scbus(4) HISTORY The arcmsr driver first appeared in FreeBSD 5.4. AUTHORS The driver was written by Erich Chen <erich@areca.com.tw>. BUGS The driver has been tested on i386 and amd64. It likely requires addi- tional work to function on big-endian architectures.
