I am trying to solve the same problem described here (in German):
http://www.forums.nas4free.org/viewtopi ... =29&t=1835

Trying to get SMART to work with my 3Ware 9650se controller.

In the web GUI under Diagnostics, S.M.A.R.T. information says:

Code: Select all

Smartctl open device: /dev/da1 failed: AMCC/3ware controller, please try adding '-d 3ware,N',
you may need to replace /dev/da1 with /dev/twaN or /dev/tweN

...for each disk on my vdev.

The following command works from the command line and produces correct SMART output:

Code: Select all

smartctl -a -d 3ware,0 /dev/twa0

where 3ware,0 means the drive attached to port 0 on the 3ware card, and /dev/twa0 is the card itself. Each drive is set up as "Single" in the 3Ware BIOS, so ZFS is handling all the data and redundancy features. The 3ware card is being used as a "dumb" SATA controller.

So the error message is perfectly correct that I need to add -d 3ware,N and replace "/dev/daN" with /dev/twa0, but it doesn't say where to add/replace these values.

I'm happy to use the command line to make this work (although a GUI solution would be nice!).

Does anyone know the proper place to edit this information?

Thanks!

PS. Here's a topic on the FreeNas forums about this exact thing:

Any ideas which file should be patched in NAS4Free?

Where does smartd.conf live?

Hey there, I just got a 3Ware controller and put in a few RED drives.

Can't get the regular smart tools to recognize it.

even tried modifying /var/etc/smartd.conf to include:

Code: Select all

/dev/twa0 -a -d scsi -T permissive -W 0,0,0 -n standby,q -d 3ware,0
/dev/twa0 -a -d scsi -T permissive -W 0,0,0 -n standby,q -d 3ware,1

instead of

Code: Select all

/dev/da0 -a -d scsi -T permissive -W 0,0,0 -n standby,q -d 3ware,0
/dev/da1 -a -d scsi -T permissive -W 0,0,0 -n standby,q -d 3ware,1

and even chmodded it to take away all damn write permissions, but it still re-wrote the file

however, running it command line works fine:

Code: Select all

You need to do a little bit more digging. Everything in var gets created at boot time, or at daemon start time. The real place to look is inside /etc/rc.d/smard, which is the startup script. I am pretty certain that the kernel runs the startup script, which populates the smartd.conf file, then starts the daemon every time the daemon asked to start. This is because the webgui configuration controls what values are used in smartd.conf, and the .conf file gets deleted on reboot.

Well, I see where in /etc/rc/d/smartd it is building the lines:

Code: Select all

        # Create configuration file
        /usr/local/bin/xml sel -t -m "//disks/disk/smart[enable]" \
                -v "concat(../devicespecialfile,' ',../type,' ',extraoptions)" \
                -i "position() != last()" -n -b \
                ${configxml_file} | /usr/local/bin/xml unesc | \
                while read _devicespecialfile _type _smartextraoptions; do
                        _param="-a"

                        # Specify the type of the device.
                        case ${_type} in
                                IDE)
                                        _param="${_param} -d ata";;
                                SCSI)
                                        case ${_devicespecialfile} in
                                                /dev/ada*|ada*)
                                                        _param="${_param} -d atacam";;
                                                *)
                                                        _param="${_param} -d scsi";;

                        esac

Code: Select all

                       echo "${_devicespecialfile} ${_param}" >> ${smartd_conf}
                done

but I don't know how to modify the device list from /dev/da0 to /dev/twa0

I'm also not familiar with rc.d scripts at all :/

I'll take a look at it on my lunch break today. Are you running a full or a embedded install? Can you also post a copy of your current smartd.conf?

Posted: **31 Jan 2013 20:49**

Full install.

Don't have access to my conf file from work, but I can post it later when I get home.

I also noticed last big that the 3ware drives are being falsely identified as SCSI by smartd.conf instead of the -d 3ware

I'll also post the relevant info from my settings XML file where devicespecialfile is defined from

Posted: **01 Feb 2013 07:05**

current /var/etc/smartd.conf:

Code: Select all

/dev/ada0 -a -d atacam -T permissive -W 0,0,0 -n standby,q
/dev/ada1 -a -d atacam -T permissive -W 0,0,0 -n standby,q
/dev/ada2 -a -d atacam -T permissive -W 0,0,0 -n standby,q
/dev/ada3 -a -d atacam -T permissive -W 0,0,0 -n standby,q
/dev/ada4 -a -d atacam -T permissive -W 0,0,0 -n standby,q
/dev/ada5 -a -d atacam -T permissive -W 0,0,0 -n standby,q

what gets added if I turn on smart for the new drives:

Code: Select all

/dev/da0 -a -d scsi -T permissive -W 0,0,0 -n standby,q -d 3ware,0
/dev/da1 -a -d scsi -T permissive -W 0,0,0 -n standby,q -d 3ware,1
/dev/da2 -a -d scsi -T permissive -W 0,0,0 -n standby,q -d 3ware,2
/dev/da3 -a -d scsi -T permissive -W 0,0,0 -n standby,q -d 3ware,3
/dev/da4 -a -d scsi -T permissive -W 0,0,0 -n standby,q -d 3ware,4

what I would like to see added:

Code: Select all

/dev/twa0 -a -d 3ware,0 -T permissive -W 0,0,0 -n standby,q
/dev/twa0 -a -d 3ware,1 -T permissive -W 0,0,0 -n standby,q 
/dev/twa0 -a -d 3ware,2 -T permissive -W 0,0,0 -n standby,q
/dev/twa0 -a -d 3ware,3 -T permissive -W 0,0,0 -n standby,q
/dev/twa0 -a -d 3ware,4 -T permissive -W 0,0,0 -n standby,q

here are two of the disk definitions in my /conf/config.xml, that /etc/rc.d/smartd bulds from. the first is ada5, the last of my five running off themain mobo sata ports. the second is the first of my 3ware drives:

last night I tried mucking about with string substitution in the rc.d script, but only managed to bork things, so I had to revert.

I was trying something along the lines of:

Code: Select all

_devicespecialfile=${_devicespecialfile/da*/twa0}

but I get

Code: Select all

eval: ${_devicespecialfile/...}: Bad substitution

as I said, I've never tried modifying rc.d scripts before, and my experience is in perl, not bash/sh

Posted: **02 Feb 2013 08:17**

Ha! I figured it out.

clunky, probably not very good, and could use improvement, BUT:

I added two sections, one in the device type section to remove the -d scsi from anything on /dev/da*
and used sed to strip the devicespecialfile path.

Caveats:
- you must include the -d 3ware,0 for each drive in the 3ware array in the S.M.A.R.T. special options field for the drive.
- what I did might break a system with other types of drive devices
- doesn't work with emailed reports from the Status -> Email Report. I need to find out where that is.

here is a resultant smartd.conf:

Code: Select all

/dev/ada0 -a -d atacam -T permissive -W 5,0,0 -n standby,q -m nobody@nowhere.com -M exec /etc/mail/smartdreport.sh
/dev/ada1 -a -d atacam -T permissive -s (S/../.././03|C/../../0/05) -W 5,0,0 -n standby,q -m nobody@nowhere.com -M exec /etc/mail/smartdreport.sh

/dev/twa0 -a -T permissive -W 5,0,0 -n standby,q -m nobody@nowhere.com -M exec /etc/mail/smartdreport.sh -d 3ware,4

the changes were

Please test this build:

64-bits only!

http://www.dutchmans.serverthuis.nl/Lat ... ntrollers/

The changes are :-
1. change IDE (ATA) device type from ata to atacam 2. add device type support for : 3ware RAID controller, Areca SATA RAID controller, HighPoint RocketRAID controller, HP Smart Array controllers (needs more testing)

Please note that we do not have all these controllers for testing, so more extensive testing is required for this patch.

http://www.dutchmans.serverthuis.nl/Lat ... ntrollers/

Second update for /etc/rc.d/smartd :-
S.M.A.R.T : Auto detect on /dev/da* devices to cater for SATA disks pass through via HBA (non-RAID) (such as LSI SAS2008 RAID controllers (e.g. IBM ServeRAID M1015) flashed to LSI9211-IT firmware)

@zoon01,

Thanks for the build. I installed the .639 firmware img and I'm unsure how to proceed.

Do I need to add the -d 3ware,n information somewhere, or add the /dev/twa0 somewhere?

Under diagnostics, SMART still gives the same error it's been giving.

What do I need to change, and what information would be helpful to you?

HI waldo22,

Can you refresh smartd.conf by doing this :-

Code: Select all

/etc/rc.d/smartd onemkconf

Then paste the content in /var/etc/smartd.conf here for further troubleshooting.

Posted: **14 Feb 2013 05:13**

/var/etc/smartd.conf contains:

Code: Select all

/dev/da0 -a -d scsi -T permissive -W 0,0,0 -n sleep,q -d 3ware,0

/dev/da0 should be /dev/twa0, I believe.

Should your patch take care of that, or is that something I should have changed by hand?

I suspect that is because the config.xml is not refreshed for the correct device type. That means S.M.A.R.T. is still using /dev/da0 instead of /dev/twa0 for detection. Can you check your disk configuration in /conf/config.xml to see whether /dev/da0 or /dev/twa0 is stored in <devicespecialfile>,e .g. :-

Code: Select all

                <disk>
                        <uuid>47934ad3-7b3b-4d43-8d9e-e0d46c29159a</uuid>
                        <name>da0</name>
                        <devicespecialfile>/dev/da0</devicespecialfile>
                        <harddiskstandby>0</harddiskstandby>
                        <acoustic>0</acoustic>
                        <fstype>ufs</fstype>
                        <apm>0</apm>
                        <transfermode>auto</transfermode>
                        <type>SCSI</type>
                        <desc>VMware Virtual disk 1.0</desc>
                        <size>8192MB</size>
                        <serial/>
                        <smart>
                                <extraoptions/>
                        </smart>
                </disk>

If that's the case, can you clear the config and reimport disk to see if that helps refreshing it to /dev/twa0 ?

If it is, then run /etc/rc.d/smartd onemkconf again to check if smartd.conf is populating correctly.

If you still have issue, can you post the following output from this command :-

Code: Select all

camcontrol devlist -v

and your disk configuration in /conf/config.xml ?

Posted: **15 Feb 2013 01:26**

In config.xml, all disks are listed as /dev/da*, even after clearing and re-importing.

Output of `camcontrol devlist -v` is:

Bummer.

Looks like these disks are treated as da* instead of twa*

However, in the Version 2 of the patch, I have added additional test to make sure da* devices are detected properly.

Could you please do the following and paste the output here :-

Code: Select all

smartctl -d test /dev/da0

Sorry for the back and forth troubleshooting, I do not have 3ware controllers for further debugging. I have IBM ServeRAID M1015 that behaves the same ( but is catered for in the 2nd patch ).

Posted: **15 Feb 2013 03:56**

Sorry for the back and forth troubleshooting

Seriously? Thank YOU for all the troubleshooting

Code: Select all

smartctl -d 3ware,0 /dev/twa0

works. (for /dev/da0)

Code: Select all

smartctl -d test /dev/da0

does not.

Were you expecting BSD to automatically assign the drives as /dev/twa* ?

I have 8 disks, and they show up as /dev/da0 - da7.

The 3ware controller shows up as /dev/twa0, and da0 - da7 can be accessed by smartctl by specifying `3ware,*` where `*` is the device number for `da*`
...so

Code: Select all

smartctl -d 3ware,3 /dev/twa0

works for /dev/da3...

Posted: **15 Feb 2013 04:20**

Ahh, ok, then it is different from how my HBA works. I'll submit a new patch to zoon01 on the weekend to rectify this.

Posted: **15 Feb 2013 04:23**

let me correct myself;

the `*` in `3ware,*` refers to the port on the 3ware controller that the disk is attached to, not the device name enumerated in /dev.

Most of the time, they happen to be the same, but you can't always rely on that...

Posted: **15 Feb 2013 07:21**

Ooh, thanks! I've been trying to get time to get the install going, but ran in to problems with my !)($%)*^# CD drive. Have a new CD drive now, and will wait for the new build with the 3ware patch.

thanks again!

Hi,

Sorry for diggng this out, but is there any news to that?

On build 943 it still works in CLI, but the creation of the smartd.conf is still wrong for this type of controller.

It think it would work, if one would change the rc-script as Wes suggested. But I think this would be overwritten with every Firmware-upgrade.

So... Is there something I can help to get this into the next build of nas4free?

Thanks,
goelli

Posted: **18 Feb 2014 01:05**

Ok. I searched a little for the progress since last post before mine.

There is a feature request ongoing since 2012-04-25 http://sourceforge.net/p/nas4free/featu ... /2/?page=1

There is a patch for older builds of nas4free http://sourceforge.net/projects/nas4fre ... 1.0.1.804/

This patch is for full version or embedded version with DATA partition. Since I have no DATA Partition, I have to use my ZFS Mount as I do for extensions like jails.

Best regards,
goelli

Hi goelli,

For S.M.A.R.T., there is a patch that fix this and will be available in the next release http://sourceforge.net/p/nas4free/code/948/

What 3ware card do you have ? There is an ongoing troubleshooting and a fix testing regarding 3ware cards that use 'twe' module ( 3ware 5000/6000/7000/8000 series PATA/SATA RAID adapter) here : viewtopic.php?f=57&t=5976

Posted: **18 Feb 2014 23:21**

Thanks for the repley.
This sounds good. I can see there will be a new parameter in the config.xml for this.
I have a 3ware 9650SE-8LPML Controller which uses 'twa'
