Okay, this is probably a stupid question, but here goes:
We've got a database server that I'm going to wipe clean and install the
latest OS. It's running 2.1 right now, and it has a hardware raid.
I've found lots of stuff on software raid tools, but are there any tools
on hardware raid?
We've got another box, an IBM AS/400, and when one of it's raid disks
fail there's a message in the system queue to let me know. I'd like to
find a way to have this database box email me or something if one of the
raid disks fail, and then of course the tools to rebuild the raid when I
replace the disk.
We're running Adaptec RAID SCSI adapters:
