Re: rx6600 SAS devices

For problem #1 you need to use the sasmgr command. Look at http://forums11.itrc.hp.com/service/forums/questionanswer.do?threadId=1304308 or search for sasmgr in this forum. The sas disk have a special procedure for replacing disks.
For problem #2 the second set of 8 internal bays is wired separately than the first and you have to have purchased an additional P400 SAS RAID controller in slot #4 to be able to use disks. Does your server have a second controller? Check with ioscan and look for controllers or SAS adapters.

Re: rx6600 SAS devices

All disks show up fine on the controller side. What kind of controller is it? If the disk does not show upt on the server side maybe the controller is using it as part of a RAID group or a hot spare.
Check the logical disk status using various "-q" options with the sasmagr. Also look at the "replace_tgt" option.
It may be a bay issue as well, if you have HP support ask them to check it out.
