Hi Sun helpers,
My system is running Solaris 10 8/11 s10x_u10wos_17b X86 and I have 
installed a Fujitsu Technology Solutions RAID Ctrl SAS 6G 0/1 (D2607) 
which is identified :-
/usr/X11/bin/scanpci -v
pci bus 0x0001 cardnum 0x00 function 0x00: vendor 0x1000 device 0x0073
  LSI Logic / Symbios Logic MegaRAID SAS 9240
  CardVendor 0x1734 card 0x1177 (Fujitsu Technology Solutions RAID Ctrl 
SAS 6G 0/1 (D2607))
   STATUS    0x0010  COMMAND 0x0047
   CLASS     0x01 0x04 0x00  REVISION 0x03
   BIST      0x00  HEADER 0x00  LATENCY 0x00  CACHE 0x10
   BASE0     0x00001001  addr 0x00001000  I/O
   BASE1     0x00000000f0840004  addr 0x00000000f0840000  MEM 64BIT
   BASE3     0x00000000f0800004  addr 0x00000000f0800000  MEM 64BIT
   MAX_LAT   0x00  MIN_GNT 0x00  INT_PIN 0x01  INT_LINE 0x05

The driver is loaded:-
-bash-3.2# modinfo|grep sas
165 fffffffff7fdd000  11ff8  69   1  imraid_sas (03.03.00)

and I can see the disks and use them:-
-bash-3.2# format </dev/null
Searching for disks...done


AVAILABLE DISK SELECTIONS:
        0. c0t0d0 <LSI-RAID SAS 6G 0/1-2.90-111.28GB>

-bash-3.2# zpool status scratch
   pool: scratch
  state: ONLINE
  scan: none requested
config:

         NAME        STATE     READ WRITE CKSUM
         scratch     ONLINE       0     0     0
           c0t2d0    ONLINE       0     0     0

errors: No known data errors


The problem is I can't use the LSI tool MegaCli as it can't find the 
controller:-
-bash-3.2# MegaCli -adpCount

Controller Count: 0.

Exit Code: 0x00
-bash-3.2# MegaCli -v


       MegaCLI SAS RAID Management Tool  Ver 8.02.24 Nov 17, 2011

     (c)Copyright 2011, LSI Corporation, All Rights Reserved.

Exit Code: 0x00

I have used the same controller on another system with the same version 
of Solaris 10 and I can use MegaCli.
