Monitoring RAID with CERC SATA 2s Controller from Ubuntu




We've just reinstalled one of our servers with Ubuntu 10.04 LTS server. It's got a BIOS RAID system using a CERC SATA 2s Controller. (setup in a RAID 1 config)



How do I monitor the health of my RAID setup from the Ubuntu OS? Is there a utility program i can use?


Answer



From the Dell website - "On Dell PowerEdge SC420 and PowerEdge SC1420 servers, the RAID Storage Manager (RSM) util- ity is used. On Dell PowerEdge 800 and PowerEdge 1800 servers, Dell OpenManageTM Storage Services (OMSS) is used"



I've been looking around for these packages for Ubuntu but can't find them, I know that RHEL has the drivers built in but not the extra tools - basically I think you're out of luck sorry.
