[OmniOS-discuss] SMART info

[Linda Kateley]

There isn't smartctl in omni, is there Dan?

Omni uses it's own fault management tools. fmadm faulty or repaired or 
iostat -e might give some hints on disk errors, but i am not aware of 
any disk querying tools like smart. format might also be able to give 
you some data.
