I'm hoping someone else has had a similar issue.

I have this card installed in a newly built proxmox server which I'm new to but none of the disk connected is showing but the card is displayed with.

lspci command

01:00.0 Serial Attached SCSI controller: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic SAS2008 PCI-Express Fusion-MPT SAS-2 [Falcon] (rev 03)

This is a RAID controller right? So you have to configure either a RAID on it or pass through the disks directly (HBA). Usually this is done while booting the server. There should be a message on screen from the controller telling you which button to press to access the configuration tool.

Hi,

sorry for the lack of information yes it a raid controller but has been flashed in to IT mode and was working with other OS fine after a bit of research it turned out that I need to add a kernel option.

pci=realloc=off

using the method below

i came across this solution here
