The cciss driver has been deprecated. What is your device IDs [xxxx:yyyy] ? You can find it by running "lspci -nn" . |

"kmod-cciss" removed from the category. |

02:00.0 RAID bus controller [0104]: Hewlett-Packard Company Smart Array Gen8 Controllers [103c:323b] (rev 01) So I should upgrade my hardware ? this is the gen8 raid controller. Am I searching for the wrong driver? |
|
|
On an EL9 system, I see: $ modprobe -c | grep -i 103c.*323b alias pci:v0000103Cd0000323Bsv0000103Csd00003350bc*sc*i* hpsa alias pci:v0000103Cd0000323Bsv0000103Csd00003351bc*sc*i* hpsa alias pci:v0000103Cd0000323Bsv0000103Csd00003352bc*sc*i* hpsa alias pci:v0000103Cd0000323Bsv0000103Csd00003353bc*sc*i* hpsa alias pci:v0000103Cd0000323Bsv0000103Csd00003354bc*sc*i* hpsa alias pci:v0000103Cd0000323Bsv0000103Csd00003355bc*sc*i* hpsa alias pci:v0000103Cd0000323Bsv0000103Csd00003356bc*sc*i* hpsa Your device with [103c:323b] is supported by the hpsa driver. Can you give it a try? |

where to find the hpsa ? image.png (63,128 bytes) |

It is an in-kernel module. No external driver needed if your device is supported. $ modinfo hpsa filename: /lib/modules/5.14.0-70.17.1.el9_0.x86_64/kernel/drivers/scsi/hpsa.ko.xz license: GPL version: 3.4.20-200 description: Driver for HP Smart Array Controller version 3.4.20-200 author: Hewlett-Packard Company rhelversion: 9.0 Try running 'modprobe hpsa' and see if that works. |

|
because of this I thought I'll need an external driver image-2.png (105,479 bytes) |

Apparently 'hpsa' is listed as the "unmaintained hardware" in RHEL 9: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/9/html-single/considerations_in_adopting_rhel_9/index#unmaintained-hardware-support |
|
|
Also from: https://access.redhat.com/solutions/6663421 "The third category of hardware, unmaintained, was introduced in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.0. It covers items that, while still enabled, are no longer tested or updated on a routine basis. It creates a bridge between deprecation and disablement to allow customers additional time to migrate to an enabled solution before hardware becomes unusable." |
|
|
so does that mean that as soon as red hat drops support the hpsa will be available in elrepo? |
|
|
As far as the code is maintained/updated in the mainline kernel (at kernel.org) and it is buildable on el9, yes, we may be able to provide the driver. |
|
|
I don't have any more questions I think we can close the ticket again. Thank you for the time! :) |

Alright, closing as 'resolved'. |
