[ please CC, not on the list ] Hi, I have a bunch of SATA disks hanging off a SAS expander on which I would like to disable APM (using hdparm -B). This doesn't work as-is, and from reading: http://smartmontools.sourceforge.net/smartmontools_scsi.html it appears that I'd need to hack hdparm to use the ATA PASS THROUGH SCSI command to make it talk to SATA disks behind a SAS expander, as was already done for smartctl. Did anyone implement something like this for hdparm yet by any chance?
.. It actually does that already. What version are you trying with? Grab the latest from sourceforge (9.10 or 9.11) and try again. If it still doesn't work with that, then let me know and we'll sort it out.
