PERC3/4 using adaptec chipset: search afacli on Dell site or aaccli on
adaptec site
PERC4 using LSI:
   - char interface like BIOS: search dellmgr on Dell site, megamgr on LSI site
   - CLI: search megarc on LSI site
SAS5/iR: download driver (dkms rpm) from Dell site, dig in it, you'll
find lsiutil.c,you have to use it like   "echo -ne
'1\n21\n1\n0\n0\n01n' | lsiutil" to make it non-interactive
PERC5: search LSI site for MegaCli rpm
