Dug through the kernel and messages logs and absolutely nothing to indicate anything was wrong -- no messages relating to the device at all. The previous reboot on 6th of August went through just fine. The card worked as expected until the fateful reboot yesterday; it was running most of my VMs.

What is a pad in Fusionio speak? A NAND chip? Would have been nice to be able to at least get this into read-only mode to recover things..

A pad should be a entire nand package on the board. It should also be able to keep going after a package failure with VSL3, though it should immediately go read-only.

Would have expected the card to go into read-only mode considering the error message of a pad being write-protected.

Perhaps it's still worth it to experiment a little with with different driver/os-version combos. Not exactly very optimistic at this point though. Kinda making me lose faith in using these :( This was my 'spare card' that was covering for my 3.2T model until I got a new server to run that in.

Hello, I have ended up with an OLD iodrive2 that I am trying to get working in my win10 desktop for no other reason than I want it. in trying to get it going I have tried a few driver version off of the san disk site. I went through this in trying to identify which firmware to put on it but the PA number (PA003717-027_5) doesn't exist in the info files.

Add this to your INFO file in the firmware.fff and zip it back up.
Use the 3.2.15 windows installer Fusion_ioMemory_VSL_3.2.15.1699_x64.exe

Code:
[PA003717-027]
version = 7.1.17.116786
file = gen2_49_crimson_fusion_7.1.17.116786.bin
format = bin
ecc = 49b
cntrpdiversion = 1.0.34
cntrpdifile = leibniz_1.0.34.pdi
cntrpdiformat = pdi
adaptpdiversion = 1.0.22
adaptpdifile = brahe_1.0.22.pdi
adaptpdiformat = pdi
Once you've zipped that up, use "fio-update-iodrive" and point it at the firmware.fff and it should update to that latest version.

Of course, make sure that gen2_49_crimson_fusion_7.1.17.116786.bin and the other file names are actually present and the correct version in your firmware file. I only have 3.2.16 extracted here, but I think it's identical to 3.2.15....

Guess I am a little different I know mine is a 3tb HP version and i would like to use the 3.2.16 firmware but i get

Error: Firmware file does not contain firmware for device 'fct0', part 'PA005091001'.

I assume that the method would be similar for the 1.2tb versions if you guys could help that would be awesome

and output of

Method is the same as for the 1.2s... gotta unzip the firmware.fff and edit the INFO file and add the correct entry.

HI everybody,
I have been reading this topic for a few days but no luck on solutions.
I hope someone can point me in the right direction.

I have 2 Sandisk ioDrive II 785GB (rev 4) drives installed in an old Dell T410 server. (dual Xeon 5 series, 128GB mem)
I am using Proxmox on Ubuntu 7.3 and i can not get them to work.
They are stuck in minimal state, i can not attach, detach, or even sure-erase them.

What i have done so far:
Here is a kernel output


Code:

Maybe still a driver and firmware mismatch? Although if the fio-status is correct there is a hardware failure...

Could you test them on a windows system with official drivers to rule out any driver problems?

Nope, i have no windows machine available...
I guess i will have to install one..
I will try that next week.
Until then i am open to other suggestions.

Try adding " amd_iommu=on iommu=pt " to your kernel boot options.
I am running intel xeons, isn't that the code for AMD processors?

I already put " iommu=pt " as an addition in /etc/default/grub, is that not enough?


Code:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet iommu=pt"

I am trying to compile the vsl3.2.16 for my ubuntu (I need to switch to ubuntu from debian due to some other incompatibility with debian). I am getting a compiliation error:

/git/iomemory-vsl/root/usr/src/iomemory-vsl-3.2.16/include/fio/port/common-linux/commontypes.h:37:10: fatal error: stddef.h: No such file or directory
37 | #include <stddef.h>
| ^~~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.

Full output is here:


I followed the instructions provided by @goob for debian:

1. git checkout v4.20.1
2. cd root/usr/src/iomemory-vsl-3.2.16
3. make
4. insmod iomemory-vsl.ko


I am able to build main branch but cannot make it work for the old branch.

I am trying to compile the vsl3.2.16 for my ubuntu (I need to switch to ubuntu from debian due to some other incompatibility with debian). I am getting a compiliation error:

/git/iomemory-vsl/root/usr/src/iomemory-vsl-3.2.16/include/fio/port/common-linux/commontypes.h:37:10: fatal error: stddef.h: No such file or directory
37 | #include <stddef.h>
| ^~~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.

Full output is here:


I followed the instructions provided by @goob for debian:

1. git checkout v4.20.1
2. cd root/usr/src/iomemory-vsl-3.2.16
3. make


I am able to build main branch but cannot make it work for the old branch.
Just found out that I need to stay on main branch for ubuntu 22.04; switching branch is for old kernels/distros. I should have stayed on main

Does anyone know why make dkms didn't work and had to do insmod?

I am running intel xeons, isn't that the code for AMD processors?

I already put " iommu=pt " as an addition in /etc/default/grub, is that not enough?


Code:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet iommu=pt"
intel_iommu=on then.

The options need to actually make it into your bootloader config, so once added, be sure to run a "dracut -f" to rebuild your boot images/etc.

dracut -f results in "command not found".

Is that a Ubuntu command?

I used 'update-grub' for a grub based system or 'proxmox-boot-tool refresh' for systemd based proxmox environments.
But you might have set me on the right path, i was using the wrong one :oops:

Thanks for your help!

Aah, yeah, it's a rhel/fedora thing.

Wasn't sure if dracut was distro-wide or not.

Can anyone confirm the sustained write speeds on the 825Gb version of this card? I used to get 800MB/sec at least but for some reason performance of the card went down on the new system and I cannot figure out why. Now I am getting 400MB/sec and I am not sure if this is the expected speed for this card.
