How do I determine array health?

T. Cooper — Fri, 10 Sep 2010 13:31:07 GMT

I have played around with hpacucli, but how do I determine the health of my array?

There is an alert at startup indicating Smart Array has detected imminent failure.

RHEL I believe.

Perhaps it is already installed. Its a FalconstorCDP appliance.

It is your call on the entire PSP utilities.

Just install the hp-health and hp-snmp-agents rpm. found @ business support site.

this will allow HW health monitoring to be reported to both message file and via snmp.

hpacucli is a great way to manually check on the internal array status.

I installed hpaducli. It gave me the report I needed and new HP would want.

Thank you everyone for your help and responses.
