Hi Guys, I have upgraded my desktop from 8.2-stable to 9.0-RC1 (from source), using a GENERIC kernel. I have installed the smartmontools-5.41_3 package from a mirror and found that smartmontools does not like the ada devices anymore. Previously (8.2) I had a GENERIC kernel, with ahci loaded in loader.conf. There an older smartmontools (5.40) worked without a problem on the ada devices. The output of smartctl looks like this: ############################# dolphin# smartctl -a /dev/ada0 smartctl 5.41 2011-06-09 r3365 [FreeBSD 9.0-RC1 amd64] (local build) Copyright (C) 2002-11 by Bruce Allen, http://smartmontools.sourceforge.net error sending CAMIOCOMMAND ioctl: Inappropriate ioctl for device Unable to get CAM device list /dev/ada0: Unable to detect device type Smartctl: please specify device type with the -d option. Use smartctl -h to get a usage summary ############################# Has anybody seen it? John -- John Hay -- jhay_at_meraka.csir.co.za / jhay_at_FreeBSD.orgReceived on Tue Oct 18 2011 - 05:39:28 UTC
