[OmniOS-discuss] Physical slot based disk names for LSI SAS on OmniOS?

[Günther Alka]

I have added a physical slot detection that displays physical
Slot, WWN and serials together with the option to switch on the red
alert led on supported backplanes within napp-it with the help of
sas2ircu (a LSI tool that displays slot and disk serial).
