Hi, Since my latest disaster was caused be me not monitoring raid disks, I was wondering about tools for monitoring hardware based raid systems? I have a Dell 1900 with a perc5 raid controller # lspci 02:0e.0 RAID bus controller: Dell PowerEdge Expandable RAID controller 5 It is set up as RAID 10 I tried running smartctl on it, but that does not even work because the system sees the array as just one disk. I'm wondering how I can monitor the disks, etc... Any advice?
