Proliant DL360 G1 Smart Array Version

[mike fiss]

I just got this server off ebay. I am trying to determine which version of the smart array it has. The only version I can find is 1.42.

Can someone help me with the smart array number? like 5x or 6x or whatever else there is.

THANKS

That particular Smart Array Controller does not have a number assiciated with it according to HP's specs and is simply referred to as the "Integrated Smart Array Controller". Here are some details about it though:

Dual Channel Wide Ultra2 SCSI performance; 80MB/s per channel, based on the Symbios 53C1510 chipset

The "1.42" you indicated sounds like the SA Controller firmware version; the latest of which is 1.5B according to the DL360 download site.

Mike,
No number.
Compaq just call this controller
"Integrated Smart Array Controller "
See questions 17-20 here:

>>The only version I can find is 1.42

I think it is SmartArray firmware version,
the last firmware version is 1.50

Hi,

If it is same then:-

Everyone is right. Updating the firmware now.

Anyone know which driver in linux this would be? cciss or cparray or another?
