Hi Peter,
thank you for taking the time to look into this.
Sadly I can't run MegaCLI, that utility is for the LSISAS2008+ family
of controllers i believe.
The MPT bios is definately exporting the SES device,
because Windows can see it just fine on the tgt:lun address,
or am I making a false asumption here?
lsscsi -g emits:
[0:0:0:0] disk ATA ST980813ASG 3.AA /dev/sda /dev/sg0
[6:0:0:0] disk IBM-ESXS ST973401SS B51D /dev/sdb /dev/sg1
[10:0:0:0] disk Kingston DataTraveler G2 PMAP /dev/sdc /dev/sg2
... so as I expected, I only get /dev/sg<x> devices for the raw disks.
Here's the INQ on the disk:
[root@nas ~]# sg_inq -v /dev/sg1
inquiry cdb: 12 00 00 00 24 00
standard INQUIRY:
inquiry cdb: 12 00 00 00 a4 00
PQual=0 Device_type=0 RMB=0 version=0x05 [SPC-3]

[SPI: Clocking=0x0 QAS=0 IUS=0]
length=164 (0xa4) Peripheral device type: disk
Vendor identification: IBM-ESXS
Product identification: ST973401SS
Product revision level: B51D
inquiry cdb: 12 01 00 00 fc 00
inquiry: pass-through requested 252 bytes but got 18 bytes
inquiry cdb: 12 01 80 00 fc 00
inquiry: pass-through requested 252 bytes but got 24 bytes
Unit serial number: 3LB0A88L00007625PXP4
... and as you specculated, the EncServ is 0, but isn't that right
since the device is indeed a disk?
I don't know if I'm reading your output correctly, but do you get a
/dev/sg<x> wich is not a disk?
I'm afraid that as long as we can't get the mptsas.ko to register the
SES device with sg,
sg_ses will indeed not have anything to work with. That seems to be
the challenge...
