This plugin allows the toggling of the led locator lights found in certain enclosures.

 

Only tested on my Supermicro BPN-SAS2-846EL connected to a LSI 2008 HBA.

Hi,

Thanks for your work. Tested with an LSI 9208e and a DELL MD1200, but nothing is listed in the table.

Can you give me the output of:

 

lsscsi -t -g

Same here =( output of lsscsi -t -g is:

Unfortunately it doesn't look like your enclosure is reporting itself properly....

 

there should be an entry like:

[1:0:19:0]   disk    sas:0x5003048000fdfa23          /dev/sdv   /dev/sg21
[1:0:20:0]   enclosu sas:0x5003048000fdfa3d          -          /dev/sg22
[1:0:21:0]   enclosu sas:0x500304801234567d          -          /dev/sg23
[2:0:0:0]    disk    sata:500a0751f003bc4e           /dev/sdb   /dev/sg1
[9:0:0:0]    disk    sas:0x4433221104000000          /dev/sdw   /dev/sg24

 

for enclosures. I did find this reddit post with the following perl code which you can try, but I don't think it will work as it is looking for the same thing.

Okay thank you, I will give it a try.

Hi there,

Just doing some testing and was very interested in trying this plugin out but it doesnt seem to work with my Supermicro backplane/HBA combo, lsscsi output below, any clues?

Hi,

 

can't access the output... please try putting it in a pastebin, or include it here.

There we go

The problem is that you don't have a sas address for your disks.... Is the hba on raid or jbod mode?

Interesting, its JBOD as far as I know...screenshot of adapter properties (from MaxView Storage Manage webgui running under Windows Server 2019), drive quantity will differ as I unplugged my windows drives for unraid testing...but no HBA card settings were changed. I can flash drive locate LED's via windows storage spaces admin console and chassis slots are reported also (see below)..

additional info

Not sure if it matters but all drives are SATA and not SAS...

Sorry, can't think of what else could be the problem... Plugin in needs sas address in order to work.
