So I'm setting up a zfs storage server and I wanted to use this controllers pass-thru option for my storage drive. But for my OS i really wanted a raid1 due to Debian not having a native ZFS installer and my over all laziness. But after setting up the OS I was stumped as to how from with in the OS I could monitor the controller and raid status. I'm so used just going the MegaCLI route that I was lost. Then after some trial and error I finally found the sas2ircu tools.
So again for the LSI9211-8i you need the sas2ircu and or sas2ircu-status
For Debian with Jessie see : http://hwraid.le-vert.net/wiki/DebianPackages
The install the toolsÂ
CLI
apt-get install sas2ircu-status
apt-get install sas2ircu
