Hi Misc,

I am using 

# bioctl sd4
Volume      Status               Size Device  
softraid0 0 Online      2000396018176 sd4     RAID1 
          0 Online      2000396018176 0:0.0   noencl <sd0a>
          1 Online      2000396018176 0:1.0   noencl <sd1a>
 
for my desktop

# uname -a
OpenBSD oko.bagdala2.net 6.2 GENERIC.MP#0 amd64

Physical drives used to create mirror on this machine are 
/dev/sd0 and /dev/sd1

When I try to probe the drives with S.M.A.R.T utility I get 

# smartctl -i -d sat /dev/sd0
smartctl 6.5 2016-05-07 r4318 [x86_64-unknown-openbsd6.2] (local build)

Smartctl open device: /dev/sd0 [SAT] failed: Operation not supported by
device


and this is without device option

# smartctl -i  /dev/sd0       
smartctl 6.5 2016-05-07 r4318 [x86_64-unknown-openbsd6.2] (local build)

Smartctl open device: /dev/sd0 failed: Operation not supported by device

It makes me wonder if S.M.A.R.T. support for physical disks is added to
bioctl since 2006/7 when Marco Peereboom was talking about that on
NYC*BUG. I am using high end enterprise drives on this machine which do
support S.M.A.R.T. and I did enable S.M.A.R.T. in bios.

Cheers,
Predrag
