Hi there,
What I am tring to do is: Build a NAS storage server based on the following hardware architecture:
Server-->SAS HBA--->SAS JBOD
I plugin 2 SAS HBA cards into a X86 box, I also have 2 SAS I/O Modules on SAS JBOD. From each HBA card, I have one SAS cable which connects to SAS JBOD. 
Configured MPT successfully on server, I can see the single multipahted disks likes the following:
r...@super01:~# format
Searching for disks...done


AVAILABLE DISK SELECTIONS:
       0. c0t5000C5000D34BEDFd0 <SEAGATE-ST31000640SS-0001-931.51GB>

The problem is: if one of disks failed, I don't know how to locate the disk in chasiss. It is diffcult for failed disk replacement.

Is there any utility in opensoalris which can be used to locate/blink the failed disk(or do we have any michanism to implement the SES command in bond of SAS)? Or do we have a tool to map the multipathing device ID to the original single pathing device ID likes the following?
