smartctl reports SAS drives with device protocol SCSI, so detectDiskType
fell through to its blanket sata default, and that non-empty type also
masked the text-output transport evidence the fallback parser had
already extracted. The wrong sata label then blocked the merge layer
from promoting the smartctl serial over the SAS transport address
Proxmox reports.
Classify SCSI-protocol devices via the scsi_transport_protocol
descriptor, let the text and sysfs refinements upgrade a generic scsi
label, and apply the legacy sata default only after all evidence is
exhausted. Parse the SCSI log-page fields (power-on hours, grown defect
count, endurance used) that SCSI drives report instead of an ATA
attribute table, and let agent-reported sas replace coarse hdd/ssd/sata
types during the disk merge.
