On Solaris x86, does zpool (or anything) support PATA (or SATA) IDE SMART data? With the Predictive Self Healing feature, I assumed that Solaris would have at least some SMART support, but what I've googled so far has been discouraging.

Bug ID: 4665068 SMART support in IDE driver

Bug ID: 6280687 Collect SMART data from disks and deliver info to FMA

If it's not automated into ZFS or FMA yet, then smartmontools would be enough for me. Did Sun's endowment of storage related code to OpenSolaris in April happen to include the dad driver (the SPARC IDE driver) that contains the missing ioctls for SMART that Matty thought could be ported to the cmdk driver (the x86 Solaris IDE driver)?

I'm a Solaris newbie trying Nevada b62 now that it supports ZFS mirror boot. The last time I installed Solaris, it was called SunOS.
