Posting this here as I haven't seen this issue mentioned or behaviour documented anywhere.

Code:
sas3ircu <slot number> display


If disk is reported as missing, that command will report disk as missing from slot 0 regardless of an actual slot.

Say you have two disks, first one in slot 2, the second one in slot 3. If disk from slot 3 is missing it will show up as from slot 0. If you rely on slot order to determine disk position, you're screwed as disk from slot 3 is now shown as the first disk.

I do not know how reproducible this is. I have witnessed two occurrences.

If possible, do not rely on slot numbers but rather on disk serial numbers!
