Just yesterday we got W= arner Wakko upgraded, and I believe it might of solved his problems. = I'm not sure what problems your experiencing, as this thread has been h= ard to follow. I hoped I had the newet version of the firmware on the HBA. monosan:~ # cat /sys/class/scsi_host/host6/version_fw=20 01.24.01.00 monosan:~ # cat /sys/class/scsi_host/host6/version_mpi=20 105 monosan:~ # cat /sys/class/scsi_host/host6/version_nvdata_default=20 2d02h monosan:~ # cat /sys/class/scsi_host/host6/version_nvdata_persistent=20 2d02h monosan:~ # cat /sys/class/scsi_host/host6/version_product=20 LSISAS1068 B1 monosan:~ # cat /sys/class/scsi_host/host6/board_name=20 SAS3801X > I would like to point out there is a firmware request for sending SEP= request, for instance setting LEDS. Here is a copy of the structure.= We call this function to set LED when there is SMART errors (for non-= raid devices). For RAID, the firmware handles it. Is this what your = looking for? I'm not firm enough with scsi to understand all your words. But the pro= blem I have is not that something doesn't work. It works with 2.6.25. I can get the LEDs to blink. I can choose which one should do. I simply= don't know which one it should be. The problem is, I wanted to simultate a faulty drive without being one = faulty. Therefore I choosed a (working) disk to be faulty by its mutlipath-name= : dm-9 Then I found out which disk it is in sd? notation. Then I read the seri= al number of this disk with the smartmontools. Now I want this LED of the bay containing the disk with this serial num= ber to blink. But I can't find out which LED matches which serial numbe= r of the containing disk. I know my english is not the best. Ask and I try to explain again.
