S.M.A.R.T. fails to report.

Hello

In my report emails I get this error:

S.M.A.R.T. [/dev/da0]:

smartctl 6.0 2012-10-10 r3643 [FreeBSD 9.1-RC3 amd64] (local build)

Smartctl open device: /dev/da0 failed: AMCC/3ware controller, please try adding '-d 3ware,N',
you may need to replace /dev/da0 with /dev/twaN or /dev/tweN

I added -d 3ware,0 /dev/twa0 to the disk at S.M.A.R.T. extra options but the error wont disappear.
When I run
# smartctl -x -d 3ware,0 /dev/twa0
I get a full report on the disk. Also
# smartctl -s on -d 3ware,0 /dev/twa0
ran successfully

Thanks for your reply. I would rather not use the patch until its tested by the developers. I didn't see, why smart does not take the extra option line, which I gave in the GUI. The line also appears in the config.xml so its saved but not executed while it works on the command shell. I may go like dnar who uses an own script as a cron job and then write results to smart.log which then can be reported via email.
