We've had some issues with Exos drives dropping out of our sas controllers (LSI 
SAS3008 PCI-Express Fusion-MPT SAS-3) intermittently which we believe is due to 
this.  Upgrading the drive firmware largely solved it for us so we never ended 
up messing about with the power settings.

Subject: [ceph-users] Seagate Exos power settings - any experiences at your 
sites?

CAUTION: This email originates from outside THG

We have been seeing some odd behavior with scrubbing (very slow) and OSD
warnings on a couple of new clusters. A bit of research turned up this:

https://www.reddit.com/r/truenas/comments/p1ebnf/seagate_exos_load_cyclingidling_info_solution/<https://www.reddit.com/r/truenas/comments/p1ebnf/seagate_exos_load_cyclingidling_info_solution>

We've installed the tool from 
https://github.com/Seagate/openSeaChest<https://github.com/Seagate/openSeaChest>
 and
disabled EPC power features similar to:

openSeaChest_PowerControl --scan|grep ST|awk '{print $2}'|xargs -I {}
openSeaChest_PowerControl -d {} --EPCfeature disable

Things seem to be better now on those two clusters. Has anyone seen
anything similar? This would seem to be a huge issue if all defaults on
Exos are wrong (stop-and-go on all Ceph/ZFS workloads).
