This is causing the server to reboot constantly, and I still have not managed to get through a full parity check yet. Is this likely to be a faulty card. It's brand new and on an Asus Z9PA-D8 and on the latest bios, which is also brand new. I have 2 x E5-2670 32 GB DDR3 1333 ECC 1 x 4 TB Seagate NAS Drive Parity 3 x 4 TB Seagate NAS Drive 1 x 2 TB WD Red 1 x 250 Samsung Pro SSD Cache EVGA Supernova 750W Fully Modular 80+ Gold Power Supply I appreciate your help.

Dextros Posted June 14, 2016 Author Share Posted June 14, 2016 Hi Just to update. I just upgraded to the new Beta version. I then installed another new Pike card I had for a new system, and I get the same thing. I am just about to change the cables, even though they are brand new. newpikecard.txt Quote Link to comment
RobJ Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 Please see Need help? Read me first!, and attach the diagnostics zip. The small syslog pieces are only slightly helpful. I'd have to say, just from the syslog excerpts, that your SAS card is not compatible, don't know why. Are you sure that there were unRAID user reports that your SAS card worked with unRAID? Cables won't help, it's the card that's non-operational. Quote Link to comment
RXWatcher Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 Is your Pike an IT Mode Pike? They seem to be based on LSI controllers which is good but you might need to flash it into IT mode if that even exists for them. See: https://forums.servethehome.com/index.php?threads/how-to-flashed-the-asus-pike-2008-to-it-modes.2558/ and https://forums.freenas.org/index.php?threads/lsi-2008-live-firmware-update.28955/ Quote Link to comment
Dextros Posted June 14, 2016 Author Share Posted June 14, 2016 Thanks for the info. I have seen that the 2008 and have it working. Please see attached diag zip Also is it possible to install extra drivers? xeon-diagnostics-20160613-1536.zip Quote Link to comment
RobJ Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 This is what the kernel is currently seeing: 02:00.0 Serial Attached SCSI controller [0107]: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic SAS2308 PCI-Express Fusion-MPT SAS-2 [1000:0087] (rev 05) Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc. Device [1043:8583] Kernel driver in use: mpt2sas Kernel modules: mpt2sas In this 6.1.9 syslog, it appears to be working fine! You have 2 drives attached on it, Disk 4 and the parity drive. Are you still seeing issues? Quote Link to comment
Dextros Posted June 15, 2016 Author Share Posted June 15, 2016 Hi Yes, I could not complete a full parity check. I have taken one cache drive out, and put the parity and disk 4 on the MB for the moment, and everything is running perfectly. I have now completed a full check, and the system has not restarted since. It happened with both brand new Pike 2308 cards I had, and 2 x Pike 2008 have just turned up, so I will be testing them later tonight One thing I did notice is that they run extremely hot. As in I couldnt touch them hot. I am using an Define R5 case, and there is not alot of air flow down in the corner above PS. I have opened up the rear IO Plates, have a small desk fan blowing into the corner of the case now. So now i can touch them. KRs Lee Quote Link to comment
RobJ Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 In that syslog, there were no issues, but they hadn't been used yet, other than mounted. A parity check would run them hard, so you may have a problem with that card overheating. Something may be wrong with the card though, because it shouldn't overheat with only 2 drives attached.

xthursdayx Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 I realize this is raising a post from the depths of death, but I was wondering if you were ever able to get one of those PIKE 2308 cards flashed and working @Dextros? Quote Link to comment
Dextros Posted August 7, 2021 Author Share Posted August 7, 2021 Thanks @xthursdayx This was not a flashing issue, but a heat issue. To resolve this, I glued a 80mm fan on top of my power supply pointing at the Pike card, and USB Stick. They are in a very similar place on the Asus Z9PA-D8. Throughout the use of the server, I ended expanding to 12 Hard Drives, and never had a problem with that card again. I also completed this mod into my fathers machine, which resolved his also! Its now sitting in the corner as I am now using a Ryzen 2 build, and the Asus Z9PA-D8 will be used again as a virtualisation server, as soon as my workshop is completed. I hope that helps.

xthursdayx Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 Interesting, I've been having some instability and temp issues recently and now I'm wondering if it has to do with the flashed Dell PERC H310 I have my server right now. In terms of the PIKE 2308 card, did you just follow the same directions cited above for the 2008 card? Or did you run into any differences? BTW, thanks for replying, despite the necro-thread!

I know this is a old........ post but this just solved a issue i was having with my pike 2308, Drives would error out or fail at random, so i put a small floor fan on it, tried again and i was able to setup my disk so far without issue. I am going to try one of these from amazon to see if it will move enough air https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07H5KPY8P/ref=ox_sc_act_title_3?smid=A235LT0EDLFSAR&th=1 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07P9Y18HB/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A1TOEWSRSZKIY7&psc=1 Quote Link to comment
