[SOLVED] install issu with lsi 2208

[ilia987]

i just installed fresh pbs server on supermicro 1027R-72BRFTP
it have internal 2208 controller ,
i have 2 dedicated sata drives(boot mirror) connected directly to the motherboard.

and 2 sas ssd (8TB) drives connected to the front panel.
but the proxmox does not see the two sas drives. but running megasasctl prints

a0       Supermicro SMC2208       encl:1 ldrv:0  batt:FAULT, module missing, pack missing, charge failed

i installed external physical card to work as "UNRAD" controller
the models is https://www.supermicro.com/en/products/accessories/addon/AOC-S3008L-L8i.php.
and connected it directly (with wires from the card to the back-plane )

the card come with two types of firmware, make sure it is IT, (you can install it yourself or ask the seller to do it for you)
