Latest Perc5E firmware and drivers...

[Mansell, Gary]

Hi,

I have installed the latest firmware and dkms drivers supplied by dell
and have fully up2dated rhel4 OS.

I have found that whereas before I was getting SAS resets - now I do not
seem too. I have been heavily stressing the server with IO for about 10
days now.

It is slightly strange because Dell had warned me, that even with the
new drivers and firmware, I would still get the resets but they would be
handled more gracefully. 

hope that helps

Gary
