Notes

The following are known limitations:

The mr_sas driver is not loaded (attached) in the Solaris 10 Update 4 version when you use certain controllers.

This issue is an OS limitation. This issue is fixed in Solaris 10-Update 5 and later.

In the Solaris 11 OS, the action Install Time Update (ITU) of the driver is not supported. T

he Solaris 11 OS requires IPS packaging; it does not support the legacy Solaris 10 OS ITU install method.
