How can I read out the raid status of my 3ware 8000 series controller?

[2.0-RC3][root@pfsense.local]/root(10): mount
/dev/twed0s1a on / (ufs, local)

[2.0-RC3][root@pfsense.local]/root(11): smartctl -a /dev/twa0 -d 3ware,2

Check the boot log and see if it was actually detected. (cat /var/log/dmesg.boot) It may not be twa0, it's probably twe0.

$ apropos 3ware
twa(4)                   - 3ware 9000/9500/9550/9650 series SATA RAID controllers driver
twe(4)                   - 3ware 5000/6000/7000/8000 series PATA/SATA RAID adapter driver

@ jimp,

found it in the dmesg.boot, but how can I see the raid status now? ???

twe0: <3ware Storage Controller. Driver version 1.50.01.002> port 0xec00-0xec0f mem 0xfbfffc00-0xfbfffc0f,0xfb000000-0xfb7fffff irq 20 at device 0.0 on pci6
twe0: [GIANT-LOCKED]
twe0: [ITHREAD]
twe0: 2 ports, Firmware FE8S 1.05.00.068, BIOS BE7X 1.08.00.048
twed0: <unit 0,="" twinstor,="" normal=""> on twe0
twed0: 476939MB (976771120 sectors)</unit>

The same commands you used before, just use twe not twa.

You're right, thank you.
