[rhn-users] Hardware RAID health monitor

[Mansour, Michael]

Hi Bernt,
 
For the most part, the manufacturer of the board supplies these tools,
they are in the best position to since it's their cards. Have you tried
going to their website to see what sort of software they have for Linux?
 
Michael.

Subject: [rhn-users] Hardware RAID health monitor


I just bought 2 servers, and they have the following hardware RAID
controller in them:  LSI megaraid 320-1 (SCSI).  I would like to set up
some kind of health monitoring & emailing of warnings when the
controller detects that a hard drive is going bad -- or has gone bad
(and the controller switched over to the hot spare).

I've googled around a bit -- but have not found something that would
lead me to believe this really exists, though I can't imagine that it
doesn't.  I mean -- it just makes sense to have that kind of
functionality.

I did find "lm_sensors" -- not sure this is what I need thouhg.  

I'm running the following Red Hat product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES
(v. 4 for AMD64/Intel EM64T)
Kernel Version: 2.6.9-34.0.1.ELsmp
