  1 This driver is for Compaq's SMART Array Controllers.
  2 
  3 Supported Cards:
  4 ----------------
  5 
  6 This driver is known to work with the following cards:
  7 
  8         * SA 5300
  9 
 10 If notes are not already created in the /dev/cciss directory
 11 
 12 # mkdev.cciss [ctlrs]
 13 
 14 Where ctlrs is the number of controllers you have (defaults to 1 if not
 15 specified).

 17 Device Naming:
 18 --------------
 19 
 20 You need some entries in /dev for the cciss device.  The mkdev.cciss script
 21 can make device nodes for you automatically.  Currently the device setup
 22 is as follows:
 23 
 24 Major numbers:
 25         104     cciss0  
 26         105     cciss1  
 27         106     cciss2 
 28         etc...
 29 
 30 Minor numbers:
 31         b7 b6 b5 b4 b3 b2 b1 b0
 32         |----+----| |----+----|
 33              |           |
 34              |           +-------- Partition ID (0=wholedev, 1-15 partition)
 35              |
 36              +-------------------- Logical Volume number
 37 
 38 The suggested device naming scheme is:
 39 /dev/cciss/c0d0                 Controller 0, disk 0, whole device
 40 /dev/cciss/c0d0p1               Controller 0, disk 0, partition 1
 41 /dev/cciss/c0d0p2               Controller 0, disk 0, partition 2
 42 /dev/cciss/c0d0p3               Controller 0, disk 0, partition 3
 43 
 44 /dev/cciss/c1d1                 Controller 1, disk 1, whole device
 45 /dev/cciss/c1d1p1               Controller 1, disk 1, partition 1
 46 /dev/cciss/c1d1p2               Controller 1, disk 1, partition 2
 47 /dev/cciss/c1d1p3               Controller 1, disk 1, partition 3
