I generally avoid installing third-party tools on the bulk of my servers, and for simple monitoring the packages cciss-vol-status and nagios-plugins-standard from Debian will suffice: root@vz02:~# lsmod | grep -e cciss -e hpsa hpsa 50787 2 root@vz02:~# cciss_vol_status /dev/sda /dev/sda: (Smart Array P420i) RAID 5 Volume 0 status: OK. root@vz02:~# /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_raid WARNING: cciss: No Smart Array Adapters were found on this machine root@vz02:~# modprobe sg root@vz02:~# /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_raid OK: cciss:[/dev/sda: (Smart Array P420i) RAID 5 Volume 0 status: OK, /dev/sda: (Smart Array P420i) RAID 5 Volume 0 status: OK]; smartctl:[/dev/sg0#0,/dev/sg0#1,/dev/sg0#2,/dev/sg0#3,/dev/sg0#4,/dev/sg0#5,/dev/sg0#6,/dev/sg1#0,/dev/sg1#1,/dev/sg1#2,/dev/sg1#3,/dev/sg1#4,/dev/sg1#5,/dev/sg1#6: OK] HTH, Flo -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
