first of all. thanks everyone who tries to help me.
secondly. i am new to Linux, using it about 2 weeks.
i have LSI 9400-16i tri-mode HBA card in my system.
i want to install LSA (LSI Storage Authority) on Ubuntu 20.04, but no luck.
i downloaded the package directly from broadcom https://docs.broadcom.com/docs-and-downloads/raid-controllers/raid-controllers-common-files/007.018.004.000_LSA_Linux-x64.zip
when trying sudo ./install_deb.sh as per README
i get error ./RunDEB.sh: 9: Syntax error: «(» unexpected (expecting «>»)
then i tried to manually install LSIStorageAuthority-007.018.004.000-1_amd64.deb and LSA_lib_utils2-8.00-1_amd64.deb and LSA_lib_utils-1.13-1_amd64.deb . manual install is done by double-clicking on DEB-files.
this went all well, without any error.
now trying to open LSA page on localhost:2463 (default settings during installations), i can’t get to the page because it is not loading.
also tried with the ip-adres:2463. no luck.
also tried port 9000, no luck.
even disabling Linux firewall via GUFW (grahpical user interface of ufw), is not helping. still no login page of LSA.

I had the exact same problem.
Are you trying to upgrade from a previous version?
What helped for me was to manually uninstall all deb packages and delete all directories by following the commands in the uninstall script. Then run the uninstall_DEB script again. Do both as root. I made sure there were no config files, or directories (the software is installed in /opt directory) in addition to uninstalling the deb files. I then ran the installation again as root.
Alternatively you can try running these commands as root:
$sudo bash ./install_DEB.sh
$bash ./install_DEB.sh
I was able to get the LSA to successfully install with the install script and even uninstall sucessfully with the uninstall script, but I cannot get the page to load. I still get the blank screen. I reached out to Broadcom, but they are just rehashing installation instructions.
The previous version worked for a while then stopped working, so I upgraded, and since then it is always a blank screen.

i have tried the options what you said.
— manual uninstall (delete all files)
— trying *.sh scripts gives me still error like i said in OP.

1) Create a root account
sudo passwd root
and then log in to the root account
2) Make sure you remove all the deb packages (i used a package manager like synaptic package manager) and searched for the packages that the install script was supposed to install. I made sure they were uninstalled AND purged (meaning all traces were removed)
3) Completely delete the lsi directory
4) After all of this try to run the uninstall_DEB script. If it does not work, just reboot your machine and using your package manager of choice make sure the packages are removed once re-booted.
I actually opened the uninstall script (nano unistall.DEB) and looked at its innards. I copied and pasted all the commands I could find to remove and purge the installed packages — The script used dpkg with some flags to do so. Also deleted all directories and subdirectories
Once re-booted login into the root account with su and re-run the install_DEB again from the root account. You can also use the bash command as root as well:
I got the program to install but it still gives me a blank screen. I am talking with broadcom support right now to see if we can find a resolution.
Установка LSI Storage Authority Software
LSA (LSI Storage Authority Software) — это утилита для операционных систем Windows и Linux, которая предназначена для управления RAID контроллерами LSI/Avago/Broadcom. Утилита позволяет настраивать контроллер, создавать и управлять массивами, кэшированием. Обновлять прошивки. Есть возможность оповещений и фоновой проверки на наличие ошибок.
Основное отличие LSA — наличие web интерфейса вместо GUI, что позволяет работать через браузер. Дизайн, конечно, так себе, но в данном случае красота и юзабилити не самое важное.
Дистрибутив LSA
Находим свой контроллер на сайте производителя. У меня MegaRAID 9460-8i.
В разделе Downloads → Management Software and Tools находим Latest LSA.
Качаем. У меня LSA 7.19. Распаковываем.
Установка LSA
Нас предупреждают, что для работы LSA требуются дополнительные компоненты:
Если пакеты не установлены в системе, то инсталлятор мх установит.
Пакет openslp_3.0.0_0_x64 у меня не установлен, поэтому запускается инсталлятор openSLP. Принимаем лицензионное соглашение и нажимаем Next. Продолжаем процесс установки openSLP следуя мастеру установки.
После установки openSLP продолжится установка LSI.
Принимаем лицензионное соглашение. Next.
Заполняем информацию о пользователе и об организации. Это необязательно. Next.
Можно изменить каталог установки. Next.
- Gateway — будут установлены все компоненты. С данного сервера можно подключаться к другим.
- StandAlone — будут установлены компоненты для работы с текущим сервером.
- DirectAgent — будут установлены компоненты для работы с другими серверами.
- Light Weight Monitor (LWM) — будут установлены компоненты только для мониторинга.
Я выбираю StandAlone. Next.
Можно изменить порты. По умолчанию web сервер работает на TCP 2460, а LSA сервер на TCP 9000.
Настраиваем оповещения. Я ставлю Since Last Reboot. Для рабочих сред, возможно, будет полезно использовать Start From Now. Next.
На рабочем столе появляется ярлык Launch LSA.
Запуск LSA
Запускаем Launch LSA. Открывается браузер с локальной ссылкой.
Указываем логин и пароль от пользователя с правами локального администратора. Можно использовать доменную учётную запись.
Попадаем на экран управления RAID контроллером. У меня контроллер Avago MegaRAID 9460-8i. Нажимаем на название контроллера, отобразится больше параметров, логические и физические диски, батарейки.
Осталось исследовать новый инструмент, это вы можете и без меня. Функций много, из интересных:
- Обновление прошивки контроллера.
- Настройка уведомлений.
- Просмотр логов.
- Восстановление потерянной конфигурации.
- Периодическая проверка целостности.
- Настройка скорости восстановления и реконструкции.
