Public bug reported: This is a request to add the following upstream commit to both Ubuntu 16.04.1 and 16.04.2:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/drivers/scsi/ses.c?id=9373eba6cfae48911b977d14323032cd5d161aae Without this patch, the symlink in sysfs which binds a SAS device to an enclosure slot does not get created. This makes disk hotplug near impossible on large JBOD disk drawers. You should be able to do: ls /sys/block/sdb/device/ | grep enclosure and see something like: enclosure_device:1 If you cd to this directory, you can then access the SES controls for that slot to flash the LED to assist in locating the disk to replace a failed disk. Currently with 16.04.1 and 16.04.2, these symlinks are not getting created. ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Assignee: Ubuntu on IBM Power Systems Bug Triage (ubuntu-power-triage) Status: New ** Tags: architecture-ppc64le bugnameltc-155011 severity-critical targetmilestone-inin16041 ** Tags added: architecture-ppc64le bugnameltc-155011 severity-critical targetmilestone-inin16041 ** Changed in: ubuntu Assignee: (unassigned) => Ubuntu on IBM Power Systems Bug Triage (ubuntu-power-triage) ** Package changed: ubuntu => linux (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1693369 Title: 5U84 - ses driver isn't binding right - cannot blink lights on 1 of the 2 5u84 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1693369/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
