    Hi,

    I'm trying to get my E250 solaris 8 machine to talk to an old a1000
    which was lying around here. After installing the latest recommended
    patches, the 6.221 raid manager and some small patches (112126-06) and ,
    I rebooted the machine and it recognized the A1000. Whoohoo!
    But then it happened: the firmware needed to be upgraded, so I started
    the fwutil command, but because I'm a bit blnd I did
        fwutil 02050632.apd c1t5d0
    instead of
        fwutil 02050632.bwd c1t5d0

    The command frooze on me and there was nothing else I could do but
    reboot the machine and A1000 because the tools (like raidutil) no longer
    were able to talk to the A1000.
    But now the A1000 is no longer recognized by the machine:

    # ./nvutil -v
    There are no devices (controllers) in the system; nvutil terminated.
    # ./hot_add
    drvconfig: driver failed to attach: ssd
    WARNING: set_drivers: No arrays were found that are controlled by either
    the sd or the ssd driver

    So you see I could use a little help here ...
    Did I screw up my firmware controller? Do I need to install patch
    106503-08? I was reluctant to do this one because it's a flash upgrade
    of the system, but maybe it needs this?

    any help is appreciated ...

    Franky
