 To get MegaCLI running on my Unraid server I did the following:

 

  - Downloaded MegaCLI for linux from here:

[[https://docs.broadcom.com/docs-and-downloads/raid-controllers/raid-controllers-common-files/8-07-14_MegaCLI.zip]]

  - Unzipped the file on a Windows machine
  - Found the RPM file for Linux in the archive and used 7z to unpack the RPM file. 
  - Copied all three files in the RPM to a folder on Unraid
  - Opened an SSH to the server and changed directory to where I placed the files
  - Ran: ''chmod 777 MegaCli64''
  - Ran: ''./MegaCli64 -h'' 
  - Enable JBOD on the controller
''/opt/MegaRAID/MegaCli/MegaCli64 -AdpSetProp -EnableJBOD 1 -a0''
  - Put drives in "UnconfiguredGood" state
''/opt/MegaRAID/MegaCli/MegaCli64  -pdmakegood -physdrv [252:0,252:1,252:2,252:3,252:4,252:5] -force –a0''
  - Make drives JBOD
''/opt/MegaRAID/MegaCli/MegaCli64  -pdmakejbod -physdrv [252:0,252:1,252:2,252:3,252:4,252:5] –a0''
