smart cant read 3ware 9750 anymore

In the latest webmin there is support for LSI megaraid raid carts added to /usr/libexec/webmin/smart-status/smart-status-lib.pl

3ware 9750 (all 3ware cards) are owned by LSI and they register in fdisk as

LSI 9750-4i DISK (4i can changes, thats dependent on the number of disks the controller supports)

Because of this the smart-status-lib goes into the LSI part of the code and not in the 3ware part. It thinks the model is LSI, but this is a 3ware card and must be read as /dev/twl0 (where 0 is the controller number).

So it says it cant find any smart capable drives attached to the system.

I have as a temporary work around the smart-status-lib.pl from webmin 1.770 re-installed.

Thanks for the info - are there any other models other than the 9750 that are really 3ware?

Not that i am aware of. The 9750 is the only one of the old 3ware cards still in production. All other models are EOL and not "updated" after LSI bought 3ware.

Ok, I will add code to handle the 9750 properly in the next webmin release.
