[OpenIndiana-discuss] Turning off the multibay hd enclousure for my backup

[dan]

It isn't exactly the device goes to sleep. It is the internal controller of the enc
that assume a low consumption profile for all the disks. When the enc controller receive
some input from the pc it resumes the disks, same position.

Again, this mecchanism worked like a charm in OpenBSD and I can't think different in OI
but the error messages. Waiting your eventual investigation about it.
