So in lk 2.6.32 aacraid driver version 24900 was used
successfully but with lk 2.6.33 the aacraid driver
version reverted to 24702 and didn't work. It might be
interesting to find the aacraid changelog between those
two versions.
I wonder as well. Vanilla 2.6.32 has aacraid version 2461 (IIRC), vanilla
2.6.33 has 24702, and Adaptec upstream has 24900, which is what they recommend
for using for the 'enterprise'. I have no idea about the politics side of this,
if there is any. There must be some reason why vanilla doesn't include 24900 by
default, though - it was released in 9/2009 IIRC.
Anyway the kernel messages shown by dmesg are just
noise and should disappear in lk 2.6.34 .
IOW "ATA pass through information available" indicates
normal operation of SAT.
Great, less noise ;)
smartctl will provide more debug information if a
'-r ioctl,3' option is added.
good to know, output follows:

The aacraid driver could not handle this command.
host_status=0x7 is DID_ERROR which is an internal
driver (aacraid) error.
What is being done by smartmontools is defined in
