+Detecting drive failures:
+-------------------------
+
+To get the status of logical volumes and to detect physical drive
+failures, you can use the cciss_vol_status program found here:
+http://cciss.sourceforge.net/#cciss_utils
+
+Device Naming:
+--------------
+
+If nodes are not already created in the /dev/cciss directory, run as root:
+
+# cd /dev
+# ./MAKEDEV cciss
+
+You need some entries in /dev for the cciss device.  The MAKEDEV script
+can make device nodes for you automatically.  Currently the device setup
+is as follows:
+
+Major numbers:
+        104     cciss0  
+        105     cciss1  
+        106     cciss2
+        105     cciss3
+        108     cciss4
+        109     cciss5
+        110     cciss6
+        111     cciss7
+
+Minor numbers:
+        b7 b6 b5 b4 b3 b2 b1 b0
+        |----+----| |----+----|
+             |           |
+             |           +-------- Partition ID (0=wholedev, 1-15 partition)
+             |
+             +-------------------- Logical Volume number
+
+The device naming scheme is:
+/dev/cciss/c0d0                 Controller 0, disk 0, whole device
+/dev/cciss/c0d0p1               Controller 0, disk 0, partition 1
+/dev/cciss/c0d0p2               Controller 0, disk 0, partition 2
+/dev/cciss/c0d0p3               Controller 0, disk 0, partition 3
+
+/dev/cciss/c1d1                 Controller 1, disk 1, whole device
+/dev/cciss/c1d1p1               Controller 1, disk 1, partition 1
+/dev/cciss/c1d1p2               Controller 1, disk 1, partition 2
+/dev/cciss/c1d1p3               Controller 1, disk 1, partition 3
+
+SCSI tape drive and medium changer support
+------------------------------------------
+
+SCSI sequential access devices and medium changer devices are supported and 
+appropriate device nodes are automatically created.  (e.g.  
+/dev/st0, /dev/st1, etc.  See the "st" man page for more details.) 
+You must enable "SCSI tape drive support for Smart Array 5xxx" and 
+"SCSI support" in your kernel configuration to be able to use SCSI
+tape drives with your Smart Array 5xxx controller.
+
+Additionally, note that the driver will not engage the SCSI core at init 
+time.  The driver must be directed to dynamically engage the SCSI core via 
+the /proc filesystem entry which the "block" side of the driver creates as 
+/proc/driver/cciss/cciss* at runtime.  This is because at driver init time, 
+the SCSI core may not yet be initialized (because the driver is a block 
+driver) and attempting to register it with the SCSI core in such a case 
+would cause a hang.  This is best done via an initialization script 
+(typically in /etc/init.d, but could vary depending on distribution). 
+For example:
+
+        for x in /proc/driver/cciss/cciss[0-9]*
+        do
+                echo "engage scsi" > $x
+        done
+
+Once the SCSI core is engaged by the driver, it cannot be disengaged 
+(except by unloading the driver, if it happens to be linked as a module.)
+
+Note also that if no sequential access devices or medium changers are
+detected, the SCSI core will not be engaged by the action of the above
+script.
+
+Hot plug support for SCSI tape drives
+-------------------------------------
+
+Hot plugging of SCSI tape drives is supported, with some caveats.
+The cciss driver must be informed that changes to the SCSI bus
+have been made.  This may be done via the /proc filesystem.
+For example:
+
+        echo "rescan" > /proc/scsi/cciss0/1
+
+This causes the driver to query the adapter about changes to the
+physical SCSI buses and/or fibre channel arbitrated loop and the
+driver to make note of any new or removed sequential access devices
+or medium changers.  The driver will output messages indicating what 
+devices have been added or removed and the controller, bus, target and 
+lun used to address the device.  It then notifies the SCSI mid layer
+of these changes.
+
+Note that the naming convention of the /proc filesystem entries 
+contains a number in addition to the driver name.  (E.g. "cciss0" 
+instead of just "cciss" which you might expect.)
+
+Note: ONLY sequential access devices and medium changers are presented 
+as SCSI devices to the SCSI mid layer by the cciss driver.  Specifically, 
+physical SCSI disk drives are NOT presented to the SCSI mid layer.  The 
+physical SCSI disk drives are controlled directly by the array controller 
+hardware and it is important to prevent the kernel from attempting to directly
+access these devices too, as if the array controller were merely a SCSI 
+controller in the same way that we are allowing it to access SCSI tape drives.
+
+SCSI error handling for tape drives and medium changers
+-------------------------------------------------------
+
+The linux SCSI mid layer provides an error handling protocol which
+kicks into gear whenever a SCSI command fails to complete within a
+certain amount of time (which can vary depending on the command).
+The cciss driver participates in this protocol to some extent.  The
+normal protocol is a four step process.  First the device is told
+to abort the command.  If that doesn't work, the device is reset.
+If that doesn't work, the SCSI bus is reset.  If that doesn't work
+the host bus adapter is reset.  Because the cciss driver is a block
+driver as well as a SCSI driver and only the tape drives and medium
+changers are presented to the SCSI mid layer, and unlike more 
+straightforward SCSI drivers, disk i/o continues through the block
+side during the SCSI error recovery process, the cciss driver only
+implements the first two of these actions, aborting the command, and
+resetting the device.  Additionally, most tape drives will not oblige 
+in aborting commands, and sometimes it appears they will not even 
+obey a reset command, though in most circumstances they will.  In
+the case that the command cannot be aborted and the device cannot be 
+reset, the device will be set offline.
+
+In the event the error handling code is triggered and a tape drive is
+successfully reset or the tardy command is successfully aborted, the 
+tape drive may still not allow i/o to continue until some command
+is issued which positions the tape to a known position.  Typically you
+must rewind the tape (by issuing "mt -f /dev/st0 rewind" for example)
+before i/o can proceed again to a tape drive which was reset.
