Closed tuxd3v closed 5 years ago
@tuxd3v would you please clone the latest & test again? From your output it seems like you are a few versions behind.
Hello, Thanks in advance for the tip.
I cloned the last stable release v19.01.31 I could clone the master repo :)
Thanks in Advance, Regards
@tuxd3v please clone the latest on the develop branch & if it fixes your issues, please let me know.
Hello xahmad, One more time, thanks for the help, on this. I git cloned the develop branch, but no success with a pcie->sata 'ASMedia ASM1061' chipset.. maybe with the 'ASM1062' it could be possible has it advertize SMART..don't know..

No way.. but via usb with '--scanflags interfaceUSB', on a usb-> sata 'ASMEDIA AS2105' chipset , I info data about a disk ( but its another disk ...Toshiba, I haven't yet experimented with Seagate Ironwolfs ).. `
You need there a pcie->sata way like you have for 'interfaceUSB' like 'interfacePCIe' ;)
Thanks in Advance for your time, Best regards
Hi @tuxd3v, I don't know why this chipset wouldn't show up in the scan, but we haven't seen this type of issue before. We have tested various PCIe add-in cards from AHCI cards, SAS HBAs from various manufacturers, USB bridges, and even older add-in cards for PATA devices without issues before. All of these cards have a driver in the kernel, and the SCSI block and SCSI generic drivers should provide handles to the devices attached to them (sd and sg). We use SG_IO to talk to the drives since we are sending specific commands to them, and our scan doesn't care what interface it is on. All the scanFlags do is filter the output to show only the specified things in the list. So when you give a scanFlag for interfaceUSB, it only shows devices attached via USB. If you give a scan flag for ata, then it will only show devices that we detected as ATA devices (PATA and SATA). If you do a scan without any of the scan flags, then we look for all SCSI generic devices that we can find. If we can't find any of those, then we will look for SCSI block devices since the SCSI block driver can send SG_IOs most of the time.
If you have a part number for the add-in card you're using, we can try ordering one and see if we can debug it further.
The reason we don't have an interfacePCIe, is because there is nothing that distinguishes a PCIe add-in card from something built-in to the system. Depending on how we detect the low-level interface, it'll end up being called a SCSI interface, or an ATA interface. We detect this by reading some of the sysfs to figure out the full path of the device we're talking to. For ATA, we look for "ata" in the path and for USB, we look for "usb" etc and anything we don't recognize we consider as SCSI.
If you do ls /dev/sd* and ls /dev/sg* do you get anything in that list? If you do, try doing something like _openSeaChestBasics -d </dev/s??> -i and see if that works or spits anything out. Adding -v 4 | tee someFile.txt will save the results of the commands we attempt on that device which may help point to the issue. Make sure it is a little v as a big V is for the version information. If you use a big V, we may be skipping the scan to show the version information and exit.

@jangrewe, Thanks for your reply! We detected that it had to do with the kernel not having the SCSI module driver compiled and present, at that time.. :(
Does you Succeed to query your disks even without the SCSI driver 'sg' loaded? Some nice Features to set with this tool, set once since they are persistent..:
# Enable Power UP in Standby
# Its a persistent feature
# No Power Cycle required
${SEA_PATH}/openSeaChest_Configure --device /dev/sda --puisFeature enable
# Enable Low Current SpinUP
# Its a persistent Feature
# Requires a Power Cycle
${SEA_PATH}/openSeaChest_Configure --device /dev/sda --lowCurrentSpinup enable
To set APM Levels in a no persisntent way ie:( /etc/rc.local)
-- Enable APM level to 127
${SEA_PATH}/openSeaChest_PowerControl --device /dev/sda --setAPMLevel 127
I will clone master branch with latest OpenSeaChest-transport version and check :) Many thanks for the tip ;)
This seems to be a system related issue and there have not been any updates in a while. Closing.
Hello xahmad,
I noticed that there have been some problems scanning disks attached to pcie controllers..

Is there any option for PCIe controllers that work? Nowadays Pcie controllers are very used due to their bandwidth and amount of drives we can put there..
Does you know how to surpasse this? Thanks in Advance for your time.
