Can support for the above controller be added?
Currently when I run
smartctl --scan /dev/sda -d scsi # /dev/sda, SCSI device /dev/sdb -d scsi # /dev/sdb, SCSI device smartctl -a --all /dev/sda === START OF INFORMATION SECTION === Vendor: IBM Product: ServeRAID M5015 Revision: 2.12 User Capacity: 145,999,527,936 bytes [145 GB] Logical block size: 512 bytes Logical Unit id: 0x600605b003b21a101bfcb9212751c03d Serial number: 003dc0512721b9fc1b101ab203b00506 Device type: disk Local Time is: Mon Dec 01 10:13:19 2014 AUSEDT SMART support is: Unavailable - device lacks SMART capability. === START OF READ SMART DATA SECTION === Error Counter logging not supported Device does not support Self Test logging

In future submissions, simply include the first smartctl output line as it reports smartctl version and platform.
If I use a commercial tool I can access the SMART information
This shows that the windows driver of this controller provides some vendor specific I/O-control that provides the required pass-through functionality.
To implement this in smartmontools, we would need documentation and/or sample code for this I/O-control and access to a machine with this controller for testing.
Could you provide this?

BTW, i think it should be relabeled megaraid controller, supported in linux with "-d megaraid". I am not windows user, so cant really help with this.

Thanks for the info. According to various sources, the ServeRAID M5015 is apparently similar to a LSI MegaRAID SAS 9260-8i.
The Windows drivers of some MegaRAID controllers reportedly support CSMI (see ticket #243 and drive-database mailing list).
This is apparently not the case here because /dev/csmiX,N
is missing in smartctl --scan
output.

Hi!
I think this isn't issue, this is normal behaviour of raid controllers
Just think about the situation, checking the RAID SMARTs' values is "impossible" because it isn't exists (even if it is a standalone disk), you can check the disks values of course, for example:
smartctl -a -d megaraid,X /dev/sdY
where X is your disk number in raid array and Y is your disk letter that give your raid controller (in my case /dev/sda)
thats all :)

Hi,
May i ask if there is any update on this matter. I encountered the same problem on this exact raid card. Other thread suggested to try the following command to scan the devices.
smartctl --scan -d csmi
but it return no result. I tried scanning for all
smartctl --scan -d auto
and only /dev/sda device appeared .

There is no update. The milestone is still set to "undecided".
To make sure that the driver does not support CSMI at all, please provide output of
smartctl -r ioctl --scan
as an attachment to this ticket.

We have no info about the vendor specific pass-through I/O-control supported by the windows driver for this controller.
Please reopen this ticket if you could provide a related documentation, sample source code or patch.
