23.Nd LSI Logic MegaRAID SAS Fusion RAID controller
24.Sh SYNOPSIS
25.Cd "mfii* at pci?"
26.Sh DESCRIPTION
27The
28.Nm
29driver provides support for the MegaRAID SAS Fusion family of RAID controllers
30using the following chipsets:

63.El
64.Pp
65These controllers support RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5, RAID 6, RAID 10, RAID 50 and
66RAID 60 using either SAS or SATA II drives.
67.Pp
68Although the controllers are actual RAID controllers,
69they appear as SCSI controllers.
70All RAID configuration is done through the controllers' BIOSes.
71.Pp
72.Nm
73supports monitoring of the logical disks in the controller through the
74.Xr bioctl 8
75and
76.Xr envstat 8
77commands.
78.Sh EVENTS
79The
80.Nm
81driver is able to send events to
82.Xr powerd 8
83if a logical drive in the controller is not online.
84The
85.Em state-changed
86event will be sent to the
87.Pa /etc/powerd/scripts/sensor_drive
88script when such condition happens.
