Do you know a reason why it is not preferably for every phy on a SAS HBA to respond with the same SAS address? As a practical matter a SAS HBA needs a single SAS address, preferably printed on the board or its box. Then if you manage to wipe its SAS address (e.g. by erasing its flash to move from IR to IT firmware) then you know which SAS address to re-instate :-)
HBA SAS phy could have same SAS address when they are directly connected. however when connected to expanders, each logical port/phy need unique SAS address. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
