Hello. I updated pve core to version 2.6.32-48-pve and now i have this errors in kernel log:

    Kernel driver in use: hpsa
 
IIRC there were some issues regarding some HP smart arrays and older kernels (2.6.x series (and as far as I rememmber fixed starting from 2.6.37) when the hpsa driver overlapped with cciss driver.

What you could do is add hpsa.hpsa_allow_any=1 to the boot (grub) params and see if it helps.


If anything for sure it works on 4.x kernels:

Code: 
root@box:~# uname -a
Linux box 4.4.21-1-pve #1 SMP Thu Oct 27 09:31:44 CEST 2016 x86_64 GNU/Linux

root@box:~# hpssacli ctrl all show config | grep Smart
Smart Array P420i in Slot 0 (Embedded)
Smart Array P431 in Slot 1
Smart Array P431 in Slot 2


Also the HP has switched the hpacucli to hpssacli ..
Hpacucli doesn't always work with newer controllers..
 
I've been hit by the same "addition failed, device not added" message on redhat, too, on a DL 380 G5 machine. that's actually how I found this thread.

what I've discovered by installing/uninstalling one by one each and every version of hpsa kernel module is that version kmod-hpsa-3.4.10-120.rhel7u1.x86_64 is the last that works okay. notice that 3.4.10 is the version of the hpsa kernel module, not the kernel version.

newer versions exposes ok the logical volumes to the os, but hpacucli/hpssacli/ssacli no longer 'sees' the arrays/controllers. so you can use it but cannot modify/query the controller

so check in your dmesg what version hpsa reports

Here it looks like this:

[ 1.430705] HP HPSA Driver (v 3.4.10-120)

Click to expand...
Not sure about RHEL but in general all the 4.x kernel tree works just fine.

For example on an old ProLiant DL360 G5 (on a 4.10.8 kernel / OpenSUSE Leap) with 3.4.16 which is the latest ( https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git/tree/drivers/scsi/hpsa.c )

Code: 
box:~ # dmidecode | grep Name
        Product Name: ProLiant DL360 G5


box:~ # modinfo hpsa
filename:       /lib/modules/4.10.8-2.gea9dcd4-default/kernel/drivers/scsi/hpsa.ko
license:        GPL

box:~ # hpssacli ctrl all show config

..

Haven't seen any issues either on G5, G6, G8 or G9 so Proxmox with the current 4.4.x shouldn't have any problems either.
