Hello list!

We are planning to buy some Dell PowerEdge 2850's with PERC4e/DCs and redundant powersupply for good availability. It looks like the PERC4e/DC (PCIe) is well supported and that's not a problem, it doesnt mention the PCI-Express version thou.

This is going to be a remote machine, so the question is: Would the OpenBSD sensors-framework detect when a PSU fails with hw.sensors? (or something else?) This is to put some scripts in place checking and sending alerts if something fails. I've only seen some info on this on a .pdf from a BSDCan presentation and some hw.sensors output from a Dell PE 2650 showing the PSU's status, so there's a good chance it still works on the newer ones. If someone has this setup working it would be great to hear.

Thanks in advance.
Alejandro.
