SAFTE(4)

NAME
safte - SCSI Accessed Fault-Tolerant Enclosure

SYNOPSIS
safte* at scsibus?

DESCRIPTION
The safte driver provides support for monitoring the various environmental sensors present in SCSI enclosures using the SCSI Accessed Fault-Tolerant Enclosure command set. The hardware monitor is used with the sysctl(8) interface.

SAF-TE compliant devices can provide an arbitrary set of sensors from the following types:
Sensor | Units | Typical Use
temp | uK | temperature
fan | RPM | fan
psu | On/Off | power supply
doorlock | On/Off | door lock
alarm | On/Off | enclosure alarm

Sensor data is updated every 10 seconds.

An enclosure may provide environmental information using an alternative to the SCSI Accessed Fault-Tolerant Enclosure command set used by this driver. Enclosures using the SCSI Enclosure Services command set may be monitored by the ses(4) driver.
