RAID diagnostics

I would like to know if there is a diagnostic utility that will check the RAID controller card itself. I have a server that is not booting but you can see the drives and array configuration but the server doesn't work. Most of the RAID diagnostic tools I have seen will look at the drives in the array, the mirror is its a RAID1, etc but they don't look at the functionality of the RAID card itself. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Re: RAID diagnostics

You can run the ADU (Array Diagnostics Utility) that will check the controller card and the hard disk.

Another option is to check the Card physically and checked the LED's on the card. You can check the LED details on the user guide for card.

Boot on a Smart Start CD.
Select the maintenance tab
Run insight diagnostices.

And as suggested by Prolian-Watch, the ADU.
