I'm not having any luck hotswapping a drive attached to my Intel SASUC8I (LSI-based) controller. The commands which work for the AMD AHCI ports don't work for the LSI. Here's what "cfgadm -a" reports with all drives installed and operational:

Ap_Id                          Type         Receptacle   Occupant     Condition
c4                             scsi-sas     connected    configured   unknown
c4::dsk/c4t0d0                 disk         connected    configured   unknown
c4::dsk/c4t1d0                 disk         connected    configured   unknown
c4::dsk/c4t2d0                 disk         connected    configured   unknown
c4::dsk/c4t3d0                 disk         connected    configured   unknown
c4::dsk/c4t4d0                 disk         connected    configured   unknown
c4::dsk/c4t5d0                 disk         connected    configured   unknown
c4::dsk/c4t6d0                 disk         connected    configured   unknown
c4::dsk/c4t7d0                 disk         connected    configured   unknown
sata0/0::dsk/c5t0d0            disk         connected    configured   ok
sata0/1::dsk/c5t1d0            disk         connected    configured   ok
sata0/2::dsk/c5t2d0            disk         connected    configured   ok
sata0/3::dsk/c5t3d0            disk         connected    configured   ok
sata0/4::dsk/c5t4d0            disk         connected    configured   ok
sata0/5::dsk/c5t5d0            disk         connected    configured   ok

[irrelevant USB entries snipped]

Now, if I yank out a drive on one of the AHCI ports (let's use port 3 as an example), I can use:

cfgadm -c connect sata0/3
cfgadm -c configure sata0/3

and bring the new drive online. I have had no luck with the SASUC8I; even though I can see messages in the system log that a drive was inserted, the only way I've been able to actually use the drive afterwards has been via a reboot. A command like:

cfgadm -c connect c4::dsk/c4t4d0

will be greeted with the message:

cfgadm: Hardware specific failure: operation not supported for SCSI device

Is "cfgadm -c connect c4" sufficient, or is there some other incantation I'm missing? :)
