LSI MegaRAID 9341-4i controller supported in Proxmox VE 8 ?

[JensV1999]

Hi

I'm currently researching in updating from PVE 7.4-17 to 8.

I currently have the LSI MegaRAID 9341-4i Raid card installed and is detected and working in proxmox 7 as you can see from the pictures below :





When I upgrade to Proxmox 8 should I be worried that my card will not be detected anymore? And get situations like this :
- https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/p...n-ssd-connected-to-avago-9341-4i-card.113182/
- https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/proxmox-can´t-see-the-virtual-disk-provided-by-lsi-raid-controller.81722/

because when updating, I can imagine the OS image will change from Linux-5.15.131-2-pve to something higher or at least a new kernel version with Debian Bookworm and the device stops communicating with the kernel.

I also read multiple things on the internet, like it has a build-in driver and doesn't really matter which version of Debian/ubuntu you are running. (but why did I need to install the driver then ) . Other say there card stops working ... So I'm kind of lost in the information and hope to get a clear answer on how this actually works =D

PS : I don't have access to a spare card I can test it with but are there maybe ways to test it without doing damage ?

Thanks in advance

I have the same issue. I use hardware raid and I am on PVE 7.4. The megaraid drivers on https://hwraid.le-vert.net/wiki/DebianPackages havent been updated so unsure what to do. Anyone resolved this ?

megaraid-sas is broken in 8.2.2 (https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/p...-8-1-4-to-8-2-2-enterprise-repository.145915/)

Would putting it into IT mode get the card working?

 

[frank68]

Card is in IT-Mode (Controller-BIOS-Setting HBA). In 8.1 (Kernel 6.5) everything is fine.

I have the card running in 8.2.2 but I do have performance issues on JBOD since 8

i'd love to get my 9440 into IT mode...can you send a link?
edit - PS the BIOS is not showing the card; there is no PCI entry visible...
