New versions of all three were released recently: - http://sg.danny.cz/sg/sg3_utils.html [1.33] a package of utilities each of which sends a SCSI command and processes the response - http://sg.danny.cz/sg/sdparm.html [1.07] a utility for accessing SCSI mode page fields by name or position. Can also decode VPD pages and issue some SCSI commands - http://sg.danny.cz/sg/smp_utils.html [0.97] package of utilities each of which sends a SAS SMP function to a SAS device (typically a SAS expander) and processes the response. Requires FreeBSD 9.0 or later Tarballs are provided in the "Download" section of the above pages. They can be built with './configure ; make ; make install'. [In some cases they may require './autogen.sh' to be called prior to the above sequence.] Both sg3_utils and sdparm have a "FreeBSD ports" entry but they point to older versions and may need some tweaking to work with the most recent package versions. This is not an area that I am familiar with. Doug Gilbert [cc-ed folks you created the sg3_utils and sdparm FreeBSD ports.]
