Description
Hey.
On https://www.smartmontools.org/wiki/Supported_RAID-Controllers it says:
-d cciss,N /dev/cciss/cXd0
and
-d cciss,N /dev/cissX
for CCISS (HP/Compaq Smart Array Controller).
However, it seems that /dev/cciss/ is no longer present with current drivers.
But... it seems that one can simply use *any* device that is exported from that controller, e.g. /dev/sda (if that is).
Perhaps just add a note to the wiki (and other documentation) that this works just as well, which may not be immediately obvious.
Thanks,
Chris.

Oh and one further thing... it *seems* that the N corresponds to what HP itself, respectively the ssacli tool calls "Bay".

Applied to Supported_RAID-Controllers. Thanks.
I mean current drivers in Linux (at least as of 5.10).
