Package: smartmontools
Version: 5.38-2
Severity: normal
To get support for 64bit KVM guests I switch from the i686 kernel
(linux-image-2.6.26-1-686) to amd64 (linux-image-2.6.26-1-amd64).
The machine has a 3ware controller which smartmontools is capable
of checking its attached disks. After I rebooted and the amd64
kernel came up, smartd refuses to work. dmesg shows that the
kernel logs out some messages then:
[132307.686213] ioctl32(smartd:23945): Unknown cmd fd(3)

If I give smartctl a try, it fails too
u...@cdserver:~$ sudo smartctl -a -d 3ware,0 -a /dev/twa0

WARNING - NO DEVICE FOUND ON 3WARE CONTROLLER (disk 0)
Note: /dev/sdX many need to be replaced with /dev/tweN or /dev/twaN
Smartctl: Device Read Identity Failed (not an ATA/ATAPI device)
And causes the same log messages:
