sesutil(8) was originally created as a more universal way to blink the + "locate" LEDs on most hot-swappable drive enclosures.

+ +

This work is based on the original SES tools created by Matthew Jacob in + 2000, which have been available in the share/examples section of the + source tree, but were not compiled by default.

+ +

The new utility extends the original code with a number of very useful + features:

+ +
    +
  • Print a map of all objects connected to the SES controller
    • +
  • Map device names (/dev/da5) to SES slot number
    • +
  • Blink the Locate and/or Fault LED of a drive by its SES slot number + or device name
    • +
  • Check the status of the entire SES controller
    • +
+ + + + Gandi + + + + ScaleEngine Inc. + + + + +

Test sesutil(8) against more hardware.

+ + + +

Diagnose an issue where the locate command sometimes + needs to be sent twice to activate the LED.

+ + + +

Add support for libxo output types.
