Use smartctl -h to get a usage summary --- .... since all the drives, cables and controllers are identical, I'm trying= to figure out if there is something *else* I should be looking into for wh= y smart would have an issue, but the rest of the OS has no issues with thes= e drives.=A0 (zfs is storing data, reports them all as online, etc). I look= ed into the smartctl code, and there definitely is a carve out for FreeBSD = 8.1 or later, but I don't know enough about the new internals to know if th= e is any kind of concern parsing more than 10 drives, etc. Thanks in advance!
