[smartmontools-support]HOW TO For SCSI Stripes

[Amer K. <ak...@ca...>]

I have /dev/cciss/c0d0..4 devices. These addresses represents RAID
controller with multiple disks behind it. Such as:
 
/dev/cciss/c0d1 has 5 physical disks connected through SCSI.
 
How can I use smart tools to diagnose problems in these devices? If I
run smartd with just /dev/cciss/c0d1 in the conf file, I get the
following error:
 
[root@cpiq log]# smartd -q onecheck

/etc/smartd.conf

Please advise and I appreciate your help in this regard.
 
Thanks.
