Hi All,

Background: I have HP RAID setups (Smart Array 5, shows up as /dev/ cciss/c0d0) on my DL380s, and they run great with CentOS. I have had a drive failure (HDD lights up amber), so I pulled the HDD, replaced it and the RAID controller rebuilt the array in a jiffy - no probs.

My question: I cant find anything in the logs to alert me that a drive failed - this makes sense since the RAID is hardware, so i presume i need some management software however i cant find anything on HP or Compaq's sites to tell me what software i need to be running. I imaging it is something like cpq_alert or such.

Does anyone on the list run HP or Compaq hotswapable kit? How do you get alerted to failures?

Download the whole Proliant Support Pack for the appropriate RHEL version:

It's been a little while, but I believe you'll have to play with /etc/ issue to get the installer to run.

Using the PSP is *much* easier than installing the various Proliant linux utilities piecemeal.
