Re: [CentOS] HP (compaq) RAID - How to get alerts?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



I run a Proliant HP ML370 G3 and installed the software which HP provided 
(smart start CD and from the website) and alerts run just fine.  There's 
also a very small hplog utility which is quite useful.  Unfortunately the 
HP utilities aren't very rpm friendly, nor are they small considering how 
little they actually do...  (and I would much, much prefer for simple 
command-line utils for everything instead of GUI and dialog boxes, not to 
mention that its pretty hard to figure out _what_ you should actually 
install).
