Hello all,

I want to download   "lsi-mr3-6.609.10.00-1OEM.550.0.0.1391871.x86_64.vib" 

But   in the official website, it seems that  there is no such  version( 6.609.10.00 )   of  "lsi-mr3"

Where can i download it ? Or   what  kind of version could replace this version ?

Thanks

From the version info, looks like the driver is for ESXi 5.5. And on the VMware HCL, I don't see the Avago controller being supported for ESXi 5.5 -

VMware Compatibility Guide - I/O Device Search

Can you share the exact make and model of the Avago SAS controller being used? You can run the below commands to fetch the required information -

To list all the storage adapters - <esxcfg-scsidevs -a>

To obtain the VID, SID, DID - <vmkchdev -l | grep vmhbaX> - Replace X with the SAS controller's ID

Cheers,

I don't think the driver version 6.609.10 is there anymore. It might have been retracted from the repo owing to some issues. For ESXi 5.5 and the model of SAS controller you are using, the latest driver version is 6.912.12.00-1OEM. Do remember to upgrade the firmware to the version 4.660.00-8102.
