That's very right, but it needs a manual setup. Whereas I need to work on storage disks attached to system, to accomplish that i have to write a script and know in itself whether it is attached to SAN or not. I know mainly there are "sysctl kern.disks" storage attached to system, nothing else.

You must be blocking my mails.

camcontrol devlist -v

It will tell you which controllers the devices are on. You can even show devices on a particular controller, say, an isp device.

Excuse the formatting, my keyboard went nuts and decided I was done

In addition to the example I showed, I was just going to say that the
purpose of glabel is to stop referring to /dev/da[0-9]* and instead be
able to refer to /dev/label/san_0_lun_0 (or whatever you like). I don't
know of a way to automagically determine if a disk is in fact a SAN, but
it cannot be too hard to figure out from dmesg + information about the
disk.

Once you have identified it LABEL IT! Then there is no more ambiguity.
