I've just upgraded a whitebox lab server from 5.0U1 to 5.1U1 today with the hope of accessing S.M.A.R.T. data for some directly attached SSDs (no RAID card). Unfortunately all I get is:
# esxcli storage core device smart get -d "t10.ATA_____OCZ2DVERTEX4_____________________________OCZ2D<...etc...>"
Error getting Smart Parameters: CANNOT open device
I also tried running /sbin/smartd
as per KB 2040405 but didn't see anything in syslog.log.
I realise this isn't a server on the offical HCL but I was optimistic the data would still be passed through - might be a BIOS/controller issue I suppose. Any ideas?
