Smartmontools support 3wave raid, this is apparant. However we have a A3500
connected to the Sun E3500s, which had 3 HDs die in the space of 20hrs. What are
the chances of getting support to probe those disks :) (snowball, hell?)

Although, raid is chained to both E3500s, and both mounted (vcs and all that)
perhaps that could confuse things if one were to try to add support.

Just curious.

Unfortunately zero, unless you can do it yourself or find someone else who
can.

Multiple disk failures on RAID systems are really painful -- it's why I
wrote the 3ware interface for linux.

Cheers,
Bruce
