OT: FC Disk Array

Tags:

Debian ISP

Hey All,

I have recently acquired a Sun StorEdge A5200 FC Disk Array. Just doing
some research before I pick the unit up.

I was curios if anyone has had any experience with these units in
regards to configuring them with Debian Etch and a Qlogic 2Gbs HBA. If
so you might be able to answer 2 questions for me.

1) Can the disk array do hardware raid?
2) Will it actually work with Debian(i386)?

I have goggled the question, but have been unsuccessful in obtaining an
answer.

Sorry if this question is silly.

Kind regards,

Julian De Marchi
