Problem Description :

Attempting to format the osprey in this partition for RAID fails:

Confirm Initialize and Format Disks

ATTENTION! System crash may occur if selected device is in use. Data loss will
occur on selected device. Proceed with caution.

Press 'c' to confirm your choice for 1=Initialize and format.
q=Return to change your choice.

Initialize and format failed

I see no errors in the system log. Formatting the disk for JBOD works.
Initializing the disk works. Formatting for RAID does not work after
doing either of those.

The partition ran htx mdt.storage_4K_rand_read over the weekend on the
osprey in JBOD mode without any errors.

I was able to initiate format for RAID on an AL14 on this partition.

htx save.it from the weekend run:

While investigating something else I broke tul516p01 and had to
reinstall it. I have recreated the formatting issue on the fresh
install.

== Comment: #15 - Gabriel Krisman Bertazi <***@br.ibm.com> - 2016-03-18 10:51:54 ==
Hello,

The problem seems to be that your adapter claims to not support 4K block
size for AF devices, while your disk, PX04SRB192, is a 4K RI SSD. Since
your adapter is a Cadet-E, 57B3 and is in the latest firmware version, I
think this setup is not supported.

Inquiry page 0xD0 for your IOA:

?***@tul516p01:~/iprdd-iprutils/build# sg_inq /dev/sg0 --page=0xd0
? Only hex output supported. sg_vpd and sdparm decode more VPD pages.
?VPD INQUIRY, page code=0xd0:
?1f d0 00 14 00 00 04 02 a0 10 00 04 02 10 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00

See that byte 10 shows 0x0, indicating that 4K is not supported.

Can iprconfig provide a more useful error message in this case?

Hmm, the error message should already be there. Thanks for noticing. I
think the reason for that is a bug when we read the device
configuration.

Justin and I chatted on ST and I should test a patch for this, once his
test system is back online.

Thanks,
