hpasmd in FreeBSD 6.2

[Geoff Buckingham]

The hpacucli only works with ciss SCSI/SAS controllers.

There was a native FreeBSD (ida) tool with source to at least monitor
ida raids around about 2-3 years ago, 
Unfortunately I cant recall enough detail to successfully Google at the
moment.
You may be able to find it buy checking the CVS logs of the ida driver
for commits of "new" ioctls.
Then Google the committer.

I found this with Google which might help but is not what I was looking
for.

I just tried to install the port using the port and package supplied 
at John's site and ran into following problems:

www# hpacucli
/usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libncurses.so.5" not found, 
required by ".hpacucli"

www# hpacucli
/usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libcam.so.2" not found, 
required by ".hpacucli"

so the binary seems to be linked against 5.x libraries instead of 
.x  - this machine is:
FreeBSD www.liukuma.net 6.2-STABLE FreeBSD 6.2-STABLE #2: Mon Nov 19
12:54:53 EET 2007     root at www.liukuma.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/WWW 
i386

The computer in question is first generation Proliant DL580 and the 
raid array controller is integrated smart array (ida)

After doing some ln trickery with the libraries, I managed to get 
hpacucli running, but giving loads of error messages from the start 
(could these happen due cam layer library version mismatch?)

Done.
Type "help" for a list of supported commands.
Type "exit" to close the console.

And the ida controller, nor the installed drives didn't show using 
"controller all show"

=> controller all show
