ServeRAID M5015 support

[ausuttonc]

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

If I use a commercial tool I can access the SMART information

Sorry forgot to mention O/S windows server 2008 R2

In future submissions, simply include the first smartctl output line as it reports smartctl version and platform.

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?
