I have a DL380 G7 with LSI 9211-8i card recently installed and flashed to latest 20.0.0 IT mode firmware while the built-in P410i card is disabled. There are 2 SSD and 6 SAS drives connected to the system but I can only see 1 SSD and 6 SAS instead of 2 SSDs. Storage adapter output shows 8 paths and 1 path dead. I replaced the drives but that one path remains dead. Interestingly when I use Ubuntu or any other CD to boot the system, I can see all drives and access them just fine. So I am not sure if this is a H/W issue. I even booted the system with ESX media and can't even see all drives there.
Been trying to get to the root cause of this issue for last 3 days getting no where. These are 3 servers in total with identical H/W and the remaining 2 are able to see all disks just fine. What can be the problem and what to look for? I am running latest ESX 6.5.0a.
Thanks,
Muhammad
