Is there any way that SAS RAID adapter (FC: EJ0U) used in S824 server can support SCIS standard disk pages 0x80?

System : Steel Mill Cold Rolling System
Actor : Our Team want to Fix the this Error
Description:
The current system provides service using Veritas InfoScale, and the server configures the internal disks to RAID to duplicate them using the InfoScale FSS function.
For disk control, InfoScale checks disk information with SCSI Command (INQUIRY), which checks the unique values for SCSI standard disk pages (0, 0x80, and 0x83).

For disk control, InfoScale checks disk information with SCSI Command (INQUIRY), which checks the unique values for SCSI standard disk pages (0, 0x80, and 0x83).

On the Veritas side, it is analyzed that the issue is caused by not receiving the value for 'SCIS standard disk pages 0x80' from the IBM RAID controller.

Is there any solution from IBM?
