I noticed that the changelog for the new kernel 2.6.9-34 on the redhat enterprise watchlist states on of the fixes as;
145061 - SMART support in SATA driver (P1)
Does this mean that with that kernel we should be able to interrogate SATA drives now ?
It seems we will need a new smartmontools (I don't know if that's
included
in 4.3) even if 2.6.9-34 now supports it: ...

Cheers,
Bards.
... Same here.
I notice that 'smartd' itself is packaged with kernel-utils and not smartmontools as I'd have expected. Does that suggest that we won't be able to use smart for sata until kernel-utils is also updated ?
That would probably be the correct conclusion, but if redhat does
intend to
support smart for libata then a new kernel-utils package will be part
of 4.3.
[sorry to jump into this late - I'm on the digest and am behind in my reading. I did not see an answer in later digests yet ]
FYI, you can use the '-d ata' option to smartctl to talk to your SATA devices with the -34 kernel. I've been doing this with a 2.6.15.4 kernel, but back-reved to 2.6.9-34 to test this and was successful. So if you edit your /etc/smartd.conf, you can have a line like:
/dev/sda -d ata -H -m root@localhost.localdomain
and you interactively do:
smartctl -d ata -a /dev/sda

Thanks Ken,
it works nicely, see below. This is done by 4.2 with all updated new machine.
/usr/sbin/smartctl -d ata -a /dev/sdb output is :
