One question more: Is it not possible to configure RAID status notifications mail IN WINDOWS (NOT in BIOS or ILO - that needs a licence that costs money)

So i had the idea to configure the RAID status notification mails in the windows tool "Smart Storage Manager" - but there is no option, so it seems. Is that not possible, to configure it just in windows - which meams i only get mails if windows is running.

If i don't habe an other option than to buy the licence for that feature: Can i disable the hardware RAID, so all HDDs / SDDs will be visible in the OS and then activate SW RAID in Windows or Linux or whatever...?

Thank you for your feedbacks.

The Array Controller will Trigger a Event in the Windows Log if something is happen.

And you can forward any Windows Event you like as Mail.

If you use Software Raid it is the same.

In the Past we have this Tool:

"The Array Controller will Trigger a Event in the Windows Log if something is happen."

...did you meant with Hardward RAID? Are the physical disks visible for windows (maybe through the drivers?), not just as one big virtual drive?

No, Windows sees only the Virtual Drives and does nothing know about the Physical World beyond.

But the HPE AMS Agent get the Information direct from iLO and provide it to Windows.

"AMS also enables iLO 4 to log events into the host operating systems’ native event log (Windows NT Event Log, local Syslog)."

"AMS also enables iLO 4 to log events into the host operating systems’ native event log (Windows NT Event Log, local Syslog)."

...which means also if i don't have a special commercial feature for ILo?

Yes

-> There is no current version for Windows Server 2016?
