The LSI card is not SATA framework. I've the impression drive
enumeration and topology is handled by the proprietary firmware on the
card, so it's likely there isn't any explicit support for SAS
expanders inside solaris's binary mpt driver at all. If you have x86
I think you can explore topology using the bootup Blue Screens of
Setup, but I don't have anything with SAS expander to test it.
I think the SAS standard itself has a concept of ``wide ports'' like
infiniband or PCIe, so I would speculate the 4 pairs are treated as
lanes rather than ports.
