It would be nice if disk manufacturers offered firmware flavors with quick fail
timeouts/reduced retries on failed read/write ops. Along the lines of the
firmware loads they give array OEMs.

I bet you $50 you can use sas2ircu on the IT firmware, particularly
with the locate command.
[Don't take the bet; if you do, I'll link you to a private github repo
with some code that does it, and my PayPal account.]

Hi,
I just had a new server released to me using a SuperMicro SC216A (direct
attach backplane) chassis and 3x 9211-8i controllers loaded with 11.0 IT
firmware. I've confirmed the firmware is correct, what is strange is that
all of the drives are showing as being on one controller (c2) though the

This looks like multipathing (mpxio); if it's enabled, it attaches all
disks
to a virtual controller, with target names derived from the WWN of the
targets.
under the covers, these get mapped to whichever physical controller(s)
have a
path to the disk. I've only used this with
That is indeed the expected behavior, speaking as someone with many
92xx controllers in Supermicro machines with mpxio enabled. :)

Interestingly mpxio-disable=yes in /kernel/drv/mpt.conf

Looks like it needs to go into /kernel/drv/mpt_sas.conf

So with mpxio off, the disks now appear on separate controllers. However,
like the cfgadm -a
sas2ircu is a useful tool for this.
Several people have written or are writing wrappers around it to
perform this task.

I'm adding it to our OpenIndiana Chef recipe as we speak. :) Thank you
again for all of your help.

I don't like mpxio disk names -- they make me work too hard and create fear of
doing the wrong thing.
Long hex strings are much harder to distinguish

... that's because it's a gen2 controller and that's how it
is designed to report info. SAS devices show their SAS addresses,
and SATA devices report a pseudo-SAS address.
Good to know. Thank you.
