'-e' is the short form of '--enumerate'. That will report the names
and abbreviations of the diagnostic pages that the utility itself
knows about (and supports). It won't show anything specific about
the environment that sg_ses is executed in.

You probably meant:
   sg_ses <ses_device>

Examples of the likely forms are:
   sg_ses /dev/bsg/1:0:0:0
   sg_ses /dev/sg2
   sg_ses /dev/ses0
