hp dl360 wont send message to message log when one drive is pulled out.

[nick_223]

Hi, can anyone help me?

I have a hp dl360 with RedHat Enterprise 3 O/S on it. I have set up a monitor to try and determine when one of the disks fails. For some reason, when i jack a disk out of the box I do not see any entry in my var/log/messages file to say that an event has occured. We need the message to appear in this file as this is the file that we are monitoring. Is there anwhere else that the message appears to say that there has been some kind off disk failure?

Thanks

Is your server DL360 G1 ? is RHEL 3 supported ?
Try to pull drive un-failed when system is down and restart it.

HiKov,

Thanks for your reply. It is a G3.

I cant take the box down and try removing a drive that way as it is a production box. And RHEL3 is supportted as far as i know.

Kind regards

Nick
