HPTMV(4)		    Kernel Interfaces Manual		      HPTMV(4)

NAME
       hptmv --	HighPoint RocketRAID 182x device driver

SYNOPSIS
       To  compile  this  driver  into the kernel, place the following line in
       your kernel configuration file:

	     device hptmv

       Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at	boot time,  place  the
       following line in loader.conf(5):

	     hptmv_load="YES"

DESCRIPTION
       The hptmv driver	provides support for HighPoint's RocketRAID 182x based
       RAID controller.

       These  devices  support	ATA  disk drives and provide RAID0 (striping),
       RAID1 (mirroring), and RAID5 functionality.

HARDWARE
       The hptmv driver	supports the following ATA RAID	controllers:

          HighPoint's RocketRAID 182x series

NOTES
       The hptmv driver	only works on the i386 and amd64 platforms as  it  re-
       quires  a binary	blob object from the manufacturer which	they only sup-
       ply for these platforms.	 The hptmv driver does not work	on  i386  with
       pae(4) enabled.

SEE ALSO
       kld(4), kldload(8), loader(8)

HISTORY
       The hptmv device	driver first appeared in FreeBSD 5.3.

AUTHORS
       The  hptmv  device  driver was written by HighPoint Technologies, Inc.,
       and ported to FreeBSD by	Scott Long.  This manual page was  written  by
       David E.	O'Brien.

BUGS
       The  hptmv  driver  does	not support manipulating the RAID from the OS,
       RAIDs need to be	set up from the	on-board BIOS.
