Hi Misc,
I am using
# bioctl sd4
Volume Status Size Device
softraid0 0 Online 2000396018176 sd4 RAID1
0 Online 2000396018176 0:0.0 noencl <sd0a>
1 Online 2000396018176 0:1.0 noencl <sd1a>
for my desktop
# uname -a
OpenBSD oko.bagdala2.net 6.2 GENERIC.MP#0 amd64
Physical drives used to create mirror on this machine are
/dev/sd0 and /dev/sd1
When I try to probe the drives with S.M.A.R.T utility I get
# smartctl -i -d sat /dev/sd0
smartctl 6.5 2016-05-07 r4318 [x86_64-unknown-openbsd6.2] (local build)

Smartctl open device: /dev/sd0 [SAT] failed: Operation not supported by

and this is without device option
# smartctl -i /dev/sd0
smartctl 6.5 2016-05-07 r4318 [x86_64-unknown-openbsd6.2] (local build)

It makes me wonder if S.M.A.R.T. support for physical disks is added to
bioctl since 2006/7 when Marco Peereboom was talking about that on
NYC*BUG. I am using high end enterprise drives on this machine which do
support S.M.A.R.T. and I did enable S.M.A.R.T. in bios.
Cheers,
