[Bug 549152] [NEW] Cannot access HP MSA disks on Karmic due to cciss driver bug, regression from Jaunty

[kmartind]

Public bug reported:

On Karmic, (including linux-image-2.6.31-20-server), HP logical drives
in a SCSI-attached MSA20 enclosure are inaccessible due to a problem
with the cciss driver version included in the 2.6.31 kernels.  Behavior
was correct and the same disk devices accessible on Jaunty.  Error as
seen in dmesg output is:

Problem:
Linux thabo 2.6.31-20-server #57-Ubuntu SMP Mon Feb 8 09:59:59 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux

[    1.566071]  cciss/c0d1:
[    1.602732]  unknown partition table
[    1.604029] cciss0: cmd 0x25 check condition, sense key = 0x05
[    1.604090] cciss: read capacity failed
[    1.604264]       heads=0, sectors=2, cylinders=13056

Expected/correct:
Linux thabo 2.6.28-11-server #42-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 17 02:45:36 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux

[    2.579088]  cciss/c0d1: unknown partition table
[    2.589788]       blocks= 2930163792 block_size= 512
[    2.590135]       heads=255, sectors=32, cylinders=359089

The fix for this problem is included in a patch identified by "cciss:
Preserve all 8 bytes of LUN ID for logical drives." which is in
2.6.34-rc1 (and I've verified that kernel version sees the storage
devices correctly on the same servers).
