[Xen-users] [About DL140G2 SATA harddisk]

["Forrest Wang" <forrest.wang@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,guys

 

    I have 3 HP DL140G2 servers and install Oracle VM 2.12 on them. After installment, OVM recognize my SATA harddisk as ATA.

 

    I did the following process.

    

    1. changed /boot/grub/grub.conf ,added ide0=noprobe on every kernel line, it looks like this 

       kernel /xen-64bit.gz dom0_mem=668M ide0=noprobe

    2. changed /boot/grub/device.map ,let /dev/hda to /dev/sda

    3. reboot my server.

 

    Unfortunately,the changes is not effective.

 

   

    After then, I recompile  /boot/initrd-2.6.18-8.1.15.1.16.el5xen.img,changed to

    echo "Loading ahci.ko module"
    insmod /lib/ahci.ko

    on  init, and copy ahci.ko to lib/ directory.

    And changed /etc/modprobe.conf to 

    alias scsi_hostadapter ahci

 

    reboot my server.

 

    Unfortunately,the changes is not effective.

    I used df, the disk is showed as /dev/hda3

 

    I use lsmod, I can see

    ahci                   22085  0
    libata                 97881  2 ata_piix,ahci

 

    It means I had load ahci as harddisk driver?

 

    My Xen version si Xen version 3.1.4

   

    Here are my dmesg uniform part and ata_piix part.

    So how can I　let my OS use SATA harddisk?
