Tested and working on HP P212 controller #10

Closed consp closed 3 years ago

I got my hands on a HP P212 card for cheap and used it for testing, it has been running for about three weeks now:

Kernel: Linux 4.19.144-hba #1 SMP Thu Sep 10 11:30:31 CEST 2020 x86_64 GNU/Linux with hpsa.hpsa_use_nvram_hba_flag=1

lspci -nn -vv | grep Hewlett

Currently running with two disks, both working fine and at rated speed and no errors (HGST 3TB SAS drives).

I don't have the card any more, did you use the same kernel or a newer one? Did you enable HBA mode with hpsa.hpsa_use_nvram_hba_flag=1 as kernel parameter?
