RAID monitoring
 
Hi,

I'm running OpenSuse 10.2 on my RAID 1 System. The RAID card is Highpoint RocketRAID 1820A.

OpenSuse 10.2 can automatically detect the RAID and install without any problem.

Now I want to monitor the RAID, if the RAID broken, I want it to send a mail to me. Is there any tool can help?

Regards,
louis

cat /proc/mdstat

You can use the S.M.A.R.T. monitoring tool to mail you if something goes wrong, assuming your drive has S.M.A.R.T support. Set smartclt to run a test weekly, or whatever you prefer. S.M.A.R.T can mail you the details and problems using:

smartcl -m username

Thanks for reply.

linux-svj1:/proc # cat mdstat
Personalities :
unused devices: <none>


Nothing I can see in mdstat, i think this is because it is not a software raid, so the status will not appear in mdstat.


I'm using Maxtor 6V200E0 200GB Hard disk, i think it is support SMART, but when I do below command, I get this:
linux-svj1:/proc # smartctl --all --device=hpt,1/1/1 /dev/sda
smartctl version 5.37 [x86_64-suse-linux-gnu] Copyright (C) 2002-6 Bruce Allen
Home page is http://smartmontools.sourceforge.net/

Smartctl: Device Read Identity Failed (not an ATA/ATAPI device)

A mandatory SMART command failed: exiting. To continue, add one or more '-T permissive' options.
Below is my df:

Other than mdstat, anywhere else can find the raid information?
