How To Install smp_utils on Fedora 34
smp_utils is Utilities for SAS management protocol (SMP)
Introduction
In this tutorial we learn how to install smp_utils on Fedora 34.
What is smp_utils
This is a package of utilities. Each utility sends a Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) Management Protocol (SMP) request to a SMP target. If the request fails then the error is decoded. If the request succeeds then the response is either decoded, printed out in hexadecimal or output in binary. This package supports multiple interfaces since SMP passthroughs are not mature. This package supports the linux 2.4 and 2.6 series and should be easy to port to other operating systems. Warning and the incorrect usage of them may render your system inoperable.
We can use yum or dnf to install smp_utils on Fedora 34. In this tutorial we discuss both methods but you only need to choose one of method to install smp_utils.
Install smp_utils on Fedora 34 Using dnf
Update yum database with dnf using the following command.
sudo dnf makecache --refresh
