Hi

I created Cachecade using 2*SSD RAID 1 configuration. But I am not able to enable the ssdcaching on any VD. The option to enable ssd caching on VD is disabled in my BIOS. The VD properties is showing that it is not a cachecade capable device. What needs to be done to make a VD with Cachecade enabled ? I

have serveral VD's with RAID5, RAID0 and RAID1 configuration. I am not able to enable on any of those

When i am trying to perform the same using storcli commands. It is throwing an error that "ssd caching enabling on the VD is blocked"

Here are my details :

BIOS version : 6.32.02.0_4.17.08

FW version = 4.660.00-8102

Driver name = megaraid_sas

Driver version : 06.810.10.00

product - intel raid controller RS3SC008

Device interface - 12G

Thanks

Hello Venkat,

 

 

I understand that the cachecade option is not enabled in the raid controller. In order to have this capability you need to have plugged in the activation key please let us know if you have this installed.

 

 

If by any change you don't have this installed you will find the activation key that you need in the following link:

Please let us know if you need further assistance.
