I use a simple script in sensorsd.
My suggestion was to have a simple way to be informed in every default
installation.
Thanks.

Hi.
What about showing softraid disks status in the "daily" script?
It could be shown just after the disk usage ("df -kl").
I know the correct way to be notified when a disk has some failure
is to use sensorsd, but it have to be setup and I think that it
could be useful to have a default and automatic way to be informed
of a bad disk.
Thanks.
I've been using this in root's crontab:
*/15 * * * * /sbin/bioctl sd8 | /usr/bin/egrep -q
'(Offline|Failed|Hot|Unused|Scrub|Inval)' && /sbin/bioctl sd8
It has alerted me of one disk failure already.
When a disk fails root receives an email with the command in the
subject and its output in the body.
